Seldin Takes on Gil Headlining ‘Rockin Fights’ September 19

Headlining the card will be undefeated Jr. Welterweight Cletus “The Hebrew Hammer” Seldin (13-0 10 KO’s) Shirley, NY, takes on tough battle tested Ramesis Gil (8-8-5  5 KO’s) Santo Domingo, DR, in the 10 round main event.

In his last appearance at The Paramount on July 18^th of this year in a bout televised as part of the popular ESPN “Friday Night Fights” series, Seldin took on veteran Bayan Jargal and as has become the norm for Seldin, waged war with Jargal.  

The bout was stopped after 3 rounds due to a cut over Jargal’s eye caused by an accidental errant elbow from Seldin.  Seldin had his huge throng of fans on their feet throughout the bout as he and Jargal stood toe to toe for the entire fight with Seldin getting the better of the great two way action.

On Sept. 19^th Seldin steps up to the main event testing his skills against another tough as nails veteran Ramesis Gil.  Despite a pedestrian record, Gil has gone to war with numerous undefeated prospects such as Karl Dargan, Jorge Maysonet Jr., and Jaime Cavanaugh.  In all, Gil has stepped into the ring with ten undefeated prospects throughout his career and always acquits himself well.

This should be a stern test for Seldin who is looking to climb into the world Jr. Welterweight ratings.

Also scheduled to appear in supporting bouts are undefeated Lightweight Alan Gotay (8-0 4KO’s) Huntington, NY taking on Hector Marengo (6-8-4 4KO’s), Arecibo, PR, in an 8 round contest, popular Anthony Karperis, undefeated Heavyweight brawler Constantin Bejenaru, Courtney Pennington, and debuting John Hernandez round out the card.

World champion Chris Algieri will be taking a break from his preparations for his fight vs. Manny Pacquiao (Nov 22 PPV) to join us at The Paramount on September 19 for this exciting fight.

The first bout is scheduled for 7:30pm and tickets starting at $50 are available at The Paramount Box Office as well as all Ticketmaster outlets and through Star Boxing.
