Sacramento’s Stan “The Man” Martyniouk has been added to the undercard of “Civil War”, headlined by the long awaited grudge match between Jesse Brinkley and Joey Gilbert at the Reno Events Center on Saturday, February 14, 2009.
Since turning professional in October 2007, the 23 year old Martyniouk, 4-0 (1), has quickly become one of the West Coast’s hottest boxing prospects.
His illustrious amateur career spanning 85 bouts, was highlighted by a Bronze Medal at the 2007 National Golden Gloves tournament and his winning the US Regional Championships three years in a row.
“We’re very excited to add Stan to our ‘Civil War’ event,” said Chet Koerner. “Along with his world class skills, he brings an all action style that the Reno fans will love.”
“I’m thrilled to fight in Reno on such a big card,” said the Russian born Martyniouk. “The fans in Sacramento and Northern California have been terrific to me since I turned pro and I’m looking forward to putting on a great performance in Reno.”
Martyniouk is coming off a four round unanimous decision over Terrance Jett on July 31 at the Red Lion Hotel in Sacramento, his third bout at that location.
“The key for Stan is to keep him busy in the upcoming year, ideally we’d like to have him fight six to eight times in the New Year and this is a great opportunity to fight close to home in front of a huge crowd,”said manager Joe Pastore.
