Jimmy Burchfield’s Classic Entertainment and Sports, Inc. (CES) has announced that it will promote three professional boxing cards, in three different states, within 10 days of each other in September.
CES, in association with the State of New York, in conjunction with the International Boxing Hall of Fame, will run a show Wednesday, Sept. 2 at the New York State Fair in Syracuse.
Two days later on Friday, Sept. 4, CES returns home to Twin River Event Center in Lincoln, RI and a week after that show, on Friday, Sept. 11, “The Radisson Hotel Plymouth Harbor Fight Series” continues at Plymouth, MA Memorial Hall.
“It’s a great challenge but we have a talented staff that will share responsibilities,” Burchfield explained. “Different staff people will be delegated specific duties for each show.
"We’ve done it before. We’re honored and proud to be promoting this special show. There will be a lot of boxing celebrities there. The shows at Twin River and Plymouth Memorial Hall will feature some of the top talent in New England.”
A press conference will be held next Thursday, August 6, at 1 PM/ET, at the Fair Grounds in Syracuse to formally announce the card.
