Another internationally significant fighter has been added to Salita Promotions’ “Detroit Brawl” event at the Masonic Temple in Downtown Detroit, on Saturday, November 12
.
In another impressive addition to an already stacked card, BBBofC Central Area Super Bantamweight Champion Muheeb Fazeldin will fight a six-rounder against an opponent to be announced.
Sponsored by Thomas Magee’s Sporting House Whiskey Bar, tickets for “Detroit Brawl” will be priced at VIP $123, Box Seats $100, Ringside $93, $63, $38, and $28 and available at all Ticketmaster outlets and Ticketmaster.com.
Known by the ring name “Flashy,” Fazeldin (8-0-1, 3 KOs) is a 23-year-old from Sheffield, United Kingdom via Yemen. A former amateur standout, Fazeldin won three national championships, six Yorkshire titles and boxed for Great Britain’s international boxing team.
The quick-fisted southpaw says he’s coming to Detroit to branch out his fan appeal abroad and continue moving up the ladder.
“My aim is keep climbing up the ranks and get a shot at the world title in within the next year, fighting monthly,” he said. “With the team I have now and the people we work with, I believe this is achievable!”
Fazeldin joins a full cast of local and international prospects on Salita’s latest “Detroit Brawl,” including a trio of undefeated Detroit bantamweights: James Gordon Smith (10-0, 6 KOs), Jarico “Great Lakes King” O’Quinn (3-0, 2 KOs) and Zach Shamoun (4-0-1, 3 KOs); as well as Russian cruiserweight Alexey Zubov (12-1, 7 KOs); Georgian super lightweight Giorgi Gelashvili (5-0, 3 KOs); and undefeated super welterweight Wesley Tucker (12-0, 7 KOs) of Toledo in separate bouts.
