An exciting boxing card tonight promoted by the well-regarded Henry Rivalta will feature some of the best talent in South Florida boxing at the Miami Beach Resort and Spa at 7 PM ET. The main-event will feature undefeated southpaw boxer\puncher Joey Hernandez, 10-0, 3 KO’s, in an 8-round bout against Nelson Manchego, 12-8-1, 8 KO’s. Joey Hernandez is projected to be a 5-1 boxing betting favorite at Sportsbook.com in the Joey Hernandez vs Nelson Manchego fight.
Hernandez is a strong and versatile fighter that has developed nicely as a pro after a solid 36-6
amateur career. The stocky Hernandez will be facing a more experienced and taller fighter in the 21-fight Colombian after winning the biggest fight of his career in his last fight against local prospect David Obregon. Kimbo Slice is a -600 MMA betting favorite at Sportsbook.com in the Kimbo Slice vs James Thompson fight Saturday.
The undercard is stacked with hungry fighters including the well-schooled Antwone Smith, 10-1, 6 KO’s and power punching Juan Nazario. Smith is a talented 21-year old welterweight that looks like a smaller less experienced version of Jermain Taylor and should be a profitable boxing betting investment. Juan Nazario, 6-0, 4 KO's, is an explosive puncher with an aggresive style that is crowd pleasing. Also in action is slick boxing light welterweight Richard Abril, 9-0-1, 5 KO’s, who was an excellent amateur in Cuba and has been a standout in the South Florida boxing scene.
Tough bantamweight brawler Jessy Cruz, 1-1, 0 KO’s, will be looking to rebound after the first loss of his career in a close fight with Puerto Rican amateur champion Miguel Torres. South Florida Boxing at it's best should be a treat for all fight fans in attendance at the beautiful Miami Beach Resort and Spa.
