From Uprising Promotions:
Queens, N.Y. (March 9, 2019) – Ronson Frank’s Uprising Promotions returned to Club Amazura on Friday night for its first show of 2019, bringing seven bouts to the stage in a co-promotion with The New Mexican Promotion and Fists of Legends. In addition to the fans who witnessed the action live at Club Amazura, a worldwide audience also had the opportunity to watch in real time via Fight Night Live on Facebook.
“It was great to host another event at Club Amazura,” said Ronson Frank, President of Uprising Promotions. “We want to thank The New Mexican Promotion and Fists of Legends for working this show with us, and we definitely want to thank all of the fighters, sponsors and fans who came out tonight. I also want to express my gratitude to Mark Fratto and his team at Fight Night Live for giving us the ability to broadcast this card to an international audience.”
In the opening bout of the evening, 50-year-old Hawaiian native Eileen Olszewski (11-7-3, 1 KO) controlled the action against Judit Hackbold (5-7, 1 KO) over six rounds, putting a stamp on the bout in the fourth frame when she sat Hackbold down with a looping left hook. While her Hungarian counterpart was a willing participant, Olszewski boxed an intelligent fight, and she was rewarded for her efforts by receiving straight 60-53 cards from the judges to earn a unanimous decision.
