By: Ken Hissner

Marshall Kauffman’s Kings Promotions returns to the Sands Bethlehem Event Center on Tuesday night with former world champion Kermit Cintron on top. He was to be the co-feature until headliner Frankie DeAlba got cut in training.

“It’s unfortunate that Frank got hurt but we have two excellent fights that will top the bill. This is a terrific card from top to bottom, and we look forward to seeing everyone Tuesday night,” said CEO Marshall Kauffman.

Cintron, 39-6-3 (30), of Reading, PA, takes on Marcus Taylor, 8-1 (0), of Houston, TX, who will be fighting in his first 10 round bout. The 24 year-old will be looking to upset the 38 year-old Cintron.

In June Cintron lost for the first time in his last 8 fights (6-0-2) losing in Philadelphia to Philly’s knockout artist Tyrone “Young Gun” Brunson, 26-6-2 (24). Cintron had Brunson down twice in the fourth round. He went out to finish Brunson off and ended up on the canvas three times before the fight was stopped.
