O’Shea Brothers Boxing: “Halloween Havoc” October 30 At Yonkers Armory

No trick or treatin’, ghosts, ghouls or vampires just a night of exciting, competitive pro boxing on tap October 30, Halloween Eve at the Yonkers Armory.

“Halloween Havoc,” featuring some of New York’s most promising prospects, is being presented by O’Shea Brothers Boxing Promotions.

“We’re bringing old-school boxing back to the fans,” promoter Brian O’Shea said. “We’re showcasing a lot of young, talented fighters on this card. We have real fighters, not guys fighting easy, hand-picked opponents.”

Puerto Rican heavyweight Alexis Mejias (10-1, 4 KOs), fighting out of Paterson, New Jersey, headlines against Josh Harris (3-3-1, 2 KOs) in the 6/8 round main event.

In the 6-round co-feature, Bronx featherweights, “Crazy” Eddie Irizarry (7-1, 2 KOs) and Joey Arroyo (2-1, 0 KOs) throw-down for neighborhood bragging rights.

Unbeaten African welterweight Issouf Kinda (5-0, 3 KOs) fights an opponent to be determined in a 6-rounder, while two 1-0 bantamweights with a common past, Raul Lopez (1-0, 1 KO) and Jose “Chilli” Rivera (1-0, 0 KOs), rekindle their rivalry in a 6-round match.

Also on the undercard in 4-round bouts is super middleweight Shqiprim “ White Tiger” Muriqi (1-0, 0 KOs) vs. Fasika Bezabeth, light middleweight Lambros “Lionheart” Karaolides (3-0, 2 KOs) vs. TBA, pro debuting heavyweight Adam Kownacki vs. TBA, pro debuting lightweights Michael Brooks and Jamel Brown, super featherweight Angel “Terror” Torres (1-3-2, 1 KO) vs. Takeshi Sato in his pro debut. All fights and fighters are subject to change.

“It’s going to be a great night of boxing,” O’Shea noted. “We have two 1-0 kids, Lopez and Rivera, fighting each other again. They fought three times in the New York Golden Gloves with Lopez winning twice. Kinda’s a solid prospect, ‘Crazy’ Eddie’s only loss in eight pro fights was a close decision, and Kownacki is a 2-time New York Golden Gloves champion.”
