Joe DeGuardia's Star Boxing in association with Mohegan Sun presents an exciting night of fights televised live on ESPN2, from the Mohegan Sun Arena. Headlining the card is Danbury, CT. resident welterweight sensation Delvin Rodriguez (21- 2-1, 13KO's) against undefeated New Jersey native Troy Browning (20-0-1, 8KO's) in a ten round welterweight bout.

The energetic Rodriguez is coming off a TKO victory over Keenan Collins on August 24, 2007, in the main event on ESPN2.

Boxing Writer's Association former President Tim Graham said, "Rodriguez has a style that makes for exciting fights, he goes into a bout with an aggressive attitude and looks to land hard shots".

Browning may have other ideas. Browning, an undefeated southpaw, scored a stunning 10 round decision over heralded 20 year old Julio Cesar "Baby Face" Garcia in 2007. What made Browning's win remarkable was that Garcia was coming into the fight with 11 straight knockouts and was a heavy favorite to win.

"This will be one electric night of boxing. Rodriguez is one of the most exciting fighters in our sport and the ESPN fans love his style. Styles make fights and this match-up is a classic Boxer-Puncher bout which always makes for entertaining TV," said Joe DeGuardia, President of Star Boxing.
