Coming off two tremendous summertime victories Derrick "Superman" Findley (12-2, 7 KO's) is well prepared to step in the ring again as Co-Main Event October 3rd for "Radisson Rumble" and keep up the momentum he has built this year. After dominating Miguel "Macho" Hernandez (20-8, 10 KO's) a contestant on ESPN's "The Contender" to a unanimous decision and completely annihilating the highly touted Andrzej Fonfara (10-1, 3 KO's) by a 2nd round knockout Findley has catapulted himself into being a threat in the highly talented middleweight division.
"I can't wait to get back in the ring." Said an eager Findley. "This sport is so exciting to me. Getting to step in the ring is the moment that makes all the hard work in the gym worthwhile. On October 3rd it doesn't matter who steps in the ring with me. It's time to show the fans that I have what it takes to be a Champion."
"Derrick is a unique individual." Said One In A Million, Inc. C.E.O. Octavius James. "He truly is passionate about his craft and his work ethic shows it. He is always in the gym preparing him self to rise to the next level of competition and it has shown as he has upset some very notable fighters as of late. "We are working rigorously on finding an opponent for the October 3rd "Radisson Rumble" to better display the improved Derrick "Superman" Findley to our fans who are excited to see him return home to fight."
In the Main Event Chicago's own Michael "Midnight Stalker" Walker (18-1, 12 KO's) looks to return to the win column in his rematch from the Main Event of ESPN 2 facing Antwun Echols (31-8, 27 KO's). Plus in a special attraction bout Juan "Mexican Connection" Aguilar (6-1, 3 KO's) takes on Orphuis Waite (2-0, 2 KO's). Rounding out this exciting card will be Heavyweight Michael "Quiet Assassin" Parker (6-0, 5 KO's), Welterweight sensation Ed Ochoa (5-0, 5 KO's), and the newest member of Team One In A Million middleweight Josh Crouch (1-0, 1 KO), and the return of Chicago's Boxing Promoter Sam Merza (14-1, 11 KO's).
