The fight, which was officially announced at a
press conference in Toledo this past Friday, will
headline a massive card promoted by Turner Boxing
Productions in association with living legend
Thomas “Hitman” Hearns and Knockout Entertainment.
A donation of at least $10.000 will be given to a
charity called MikiesMinutes™, a
program that connects US soldiers serving in the
field with loved ones at home, and 570 free seats
will be available to US Military, both active and
disabled.
The card will also serve as a fundraiser for the
Toledo Police Athletic league and area boxing
clubs.
Bronco McKart won the UBO world title in his last
fight when he stopped Michi Munoz on seven rounds
in his hometown of Monroe, Michigan, and is a
former WBO and IBA World Champion. He will be in
for a big challenge against Medina, who is
undefeated in his last six fights.
Jose Medina, born in Guadalajara but now fighting
out of Tilton, New Hampshire, emerged as a top
class contender in 2011 by beating the likes of
Isaac Rodrigues (17-1), Markus Williams (7-1) and
Chris Fitzpatrick (14-0), as well as drawing with
former WBA World Champion Joachim Alcine (32-2).
