Four unbeaten boxers from New England will be spotlighted on a September 6 event in Lowell, Massachusetts.

The headliner at the historic Lowell Memorial Auditorium is Michael Fontanez, 12-0 (8 KOs), a 29-year-old from nearby Nashua, New Hampshire. Fontanez has been competing at both junior middleweight and middleweight. He’s fought twice so far in 2025, scoring a sixth-round TKO over the 10-3 Ray Oliveira Jnr in February and a fourth-round TKO against the 10-14-2 Noah Kidd in June.

Fontanez's opponent is TBA after his original foe pulled out, a spokesman for CES Boxing told BoxingScene.
