On Saturday July 17th at the Tropicana Casino and Resort, Philadelphia's up and coming welterweight prospect, Raymond "Tito" Serrano (12-0, 6KO's) will look to continue on his path up the contender ranks when he takes on Ghana's Ayi Bruce (6-2, 4KO's). Serrano-Bruce is scheduled for eight rounds, and will be one of the co-featured bouts of the evening on the Pay-Per-View telecast. The card, being presented by Joe DeGuardia's Star Boxing, and billed as T-N-T at the Tropicana, will feature WBO #2 rated heavyweight David Tua (51-3-1, 43KO's) taking on Monte Barrett (34-9, 20KO's) in the main event.
Serrano is coming off a dominate
eight round unanimous decision over Ronald Warrior Jr. in his last fight, which was televised live on ESPN's "Friday Night Fights" earlier this year.
The 21-year-old Serrano, is excited to be fighting in Atlantic City and is looking forward to the world-wide exposure he will get in fighting on PPV.
"This is very exciting fight for me," stated Serrano. "Fighting so close to home, and fighting on PPV, is a dream come true for me. I have a lot of family in Puerto Rico and fighting on PPV will allow them to see me fight, so this is definitely a special fight for me. This will be my second consecutive eight rounder, and I feel that before this year is over I will be ready to move up to ten round fights, and start testing myself against some of the top prospects in the welterweight division. I am very focused, and very hungry. This will be my third fight in Atlantic City since turning pro, and just as in my previous two, I plan on putting on an exciting entertaining performance for all the fans in attendance."
