October 23, 2012 - The "Night Of Champions" fightcard, taking place on Friday, October 26 at the Roque Nido Stella Coliseum in Guayama, Puerto Rico, will mark a interesting test in the young career of rising prospect, Jorge "Machito" Maysonet Jr. (9-0, 8 KOs) from Puerto Rico.
Maysonet Jr. will be facing the always dangerous and complicated, Ramesis "Payasito" Gil (8-4-5, 5 KOs) from the Dominican Republic. The fight is scheduled for eight rounds at the lightweight division (135 lbs).
"This was a fight that had to happen to let us know where we stand. Whoever has doubts about Maysonet Jr., will witness his immense skill level this Friday in Guayama", said Javier Bustillo, president of Universal Promotions.
As an amateur standout, Maysonet Jr., amassed a record of 140(W)-10(L), winning various local tournaments like the Jos? Barrientos and the Jos? "Cheo" Aponte competitions. In professional boxing, all his knockouts have come in the very first round.
"I have prepared myself with a lot of intensity. My father (Jorge Maysonet Sr.) has trained me very well and this Friday Ramesis will find out what a true puncher hits like," commented Maysonet. "Ramesis says I only fight for four rounds, we will see if he lasts to the fourth round but I'm ready to go the distance if he can handle my power."
