New Generation Card Shaping Up: Lopez vs. Green
New Generation Fight Promotions have their card lined up for this Saturday, February 28th with 7 bouts made and one on the burner. Rick Lopez Sr. and his son’s Devin and Ricky are back for their ‘sophomore year’ of promoting. The main event was going to be Ricky Lopez taking on Brian Green, who pulled the plug on Monday. A replacement is being sought but the clock is ticking. The co main, which may be elevated to the main event, will feature Manny Lopez, 7-1, 5KOs taking on Staunton, Virginia’s Christian Steele, 4-13-2, 1KO. Steele is riding a 6 fight losing streak but did manage a split decision against undefeated Naim Nelson. He will be looking for the upset. Lopez is coming in on the heels of two wins and gaining momentum. This is a six round welterweight bout.
