BOXING

I don't due too many boxing press conference stories....but I am due and here is one.

I have now been to a "Gentlemans Club"........ Sapphire in last Las Vegas....that for the boxing press conference of course.....I don't know what they due at these clubs and I don't care but for this event it was ok. Late of course.........2 days and 29 minutes....only slightly too loud and slightly too dark.

PROMOTER Roy Englebrecht has worked with the Primm Vally Star of the Desert Arena before and you have appreciate his effort....Englebrecht calls it a record....three events in three sports in three days....boxing...MMA ....and wrestling......all on three success days...... all at Primm.

Gamboa on the main event card Friday.....a real comer and ticket seller.....lovely pres conference....four fighters spoke, two in Spanish....one in German and then the American.....he said he did not need an interpter....best line of the day.

Great lunch....big video screen behind the podium....no press releases or kits....no drinks....not too long.....got to hear from the Primm CEO and Ceo of the Sapphire Club.....great entertainment....I hope the fights are as good.

They get 71 for starting 29 minutes late C-
