Andre Kut’s KEA Boxing Promotions will bring pro boxing back to the beautiful Birchwood Manor in Whippany, New Jersey on Friday night, May 4th featuring some of the best fighters in the northeast.

In the co-main will be the return of former USBA super middleweight title challenger Jason “Monstruo” Escalera (15-4-1, 12 KOs) in a six-round bout.

Diaz of New Brunswick, New Jersey, has a style that is a mixture of speed and power, which leads to several “fight of the night” candidates.

He has five losses, but all have come to top prospects whose combined records were 88-1-4. He won the vacant World Boxing Council FECARBOX super bantamweight title in November.
