“I’m thrilled to bring Broadway Boxing back to our home away from home at Foxwoods Resort Casino,” said Lou DiBella, President of DiBella Entertainment. “Headlining the card will be the explosive ‘Marvelous’ Mykquan Williams, a Foxwoods staple from East Hartford, CT, who has six first-round knockouts and won his first title belt last time out. Touted amateurs and now exciting prospects Hurshidbek Normatov, of Uzbekistan, and Russian Radzhab Butaev will continue their impressive rise up the professional ladder. We will have two women’s bouts with the always-entertaining Shelly Vincent from Rhode Island and world champion Alicia Napoleon in action. The stacked undercard will also include promising New England locals Adrian Sosa and Lamont Powell.
In the eight-round co-feature, popular New England female fighter Shelly “Shelito’s Way” Vincent (22-1, 1 KO), of Providence, RI, will face off in a junior lightweight bout. Vincent has won four straight since her only defeat in August 2016 via majority decision in a nationally televised battle to Heather Hardy in what The Ring Magazine hailed as the “Female Fight of the Year.” She was honored by the Connecticut Boxing Hall of Fame as their “Fighter of the Year” in 2016, becoming the first female recipient of the award.
Also featured in a six-round women’s bout will be WBA Super Middleweight World Champion Alicia “The Empress” Napoleon (9-1, 5 KOs), of Lindenhurst, NY. Napoleon seized the world title in her last bout, earning a brilliant 10-round decision versus Femke Hermans on March 3, at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY.
