One day before Israel Vazquez and Rafael Marquez renew their rivalry on Showtime Championship Boxing, America’s No. 1 Fight Network hits you with one of the most anticipated ShoBox fight cards of the new year.
On Friday, February 29, IBF Featherweight Champion and ShoBox alum Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero, 21-1-1, 1 ND (14), will defend his title against Jason “The American Boy” Litzau, 23-1 (19), on Friday, Feb. 29, live on Showtime on Shobox: The New Generation, 11:00 p.m. ET/PT delayed on the west coast.
The Showtime event is being promoted by Goossen Tutor Promotions, LLC and will originate from the Tachi Palace Hotel & Casino in Lemoore , Calif. Also featured on the televised card will be a 10-round heavyweight rematch between young rivals TJ “Top Dog” Wilson, 12-1 (8) of Miami, Fla., and Travis “Freight Train” Walker, 26-1-1, (20) of Houston, Texas.
Wilson and Walker first met in Oct. 2007 on ShoBox with Wilson winning an unpopular, controversial 15-second, first-round knockout over the previously undefeated Walker . Mere seconds after the opening bell, Wilson backed Walker into a corner and began delivering punches with both hands. Walker seemed stunned by the barrage and didn’t once attempt to retaliate, causing the referee to stop the bout.
