Legendary boxing promoter Don King has put together “The Quest for the Best,” set to take place on Saturday, April 27, at the Casino Miami Jai-Alai in Miami, Florida. This evening features three regional championship bouts. King commented: “In the ring, there’s no room for hesitation, only domination. ‘The Quest for the Best’ will be a testament to the relentless pursuit of greatness in the squared circle.”
WBA Continental Americas middleweight champion Ian Green (18-2, 12 KOs) faces Roy Barringer (10-4, 6 KOs), NABA/NABF light heavyweight champion Ahmed Elbiali (23-1, 18 KOs) meets undefeated Sergio Jimenez (13-0-1, 11 KOs), and WBC Int’l lightweight champion Antonio Perez (9-0, 5 KOs) risks his title against Oscar Acevedo (9-1).
The evening of boxing also will feature four undercard fights, including DeVon Williams (4-0, 4 KOs) against Julio Tanori (1-1, 1 KO) for the WBC Youth Intercontinental super lightweight title.
Probably a crappy card!
Is that old crook still alive? Sheesh! Don pulled off some fights no one else could but destroyed boxing by everyone gets a title stuff. Hasim Rachman (sp?)story of don walking him away from a multimillion dollar guarantee but telling him he could never cash a check of that size and giving him a duffle bag of $100K in $100 bills.
1-1 and fighting for a WBC Youth Title… glad to see that the WBC still has such strict standards for sanctioning title fights!!
Don King is a has been. His shows are irrelevant.
Another stellar card from the Casino Miami Jai-Alai, that will look like a B grade movie. I would honestly prefer to watch a game of Jai-Alai, I remember the episode of Miami Vice and thought well that looks interesting
Hey I’ve been a huge boxing fan for over 60 yrs and this current crop of fighters just makes me angry, the top fighters don’t want fight each other back in the 70’s and 80’s didn’t happen, the best wanted to fight the best, just venting, just pisses me off, thank you
