North Bergen, NJ – “Mighty” Mike Arnaoutis is pumped and ready for his June 25 return at North Bergen, NJ’s Schuetzen Park this Thursday night. Arnaoutis, 21-3-2 (10 KO), will be fighting in Pound 4 Pound Promotions’ “Summer Rumble” 10-round main event this Thursday night against Puerto Rican knockout artist Doel Carrasquillo.
“I’m looking forward to fighting in front of all my fans,” says Arnaoutis, a native of Athens, Greece but now residing in Atlantic City, NJ. “It’s going to be a great night. I promise to put on a great show for the fans and prove that I’m here to stay. Boxing is my life and I won’t stop until I win the world title.”
Arnaoutis is coming off a loss to Victor Ortiz on HBO this past March. For this fight Arnaoutis has rejoined trainer Bill Johnson in Atlantic City. Arnaoutis held the USBA and NABO junior-welterweight titles and has faced the very best in the 140 pound division, including three world champions.
Carrasquillo is 12-11-1 (10 KO) and resides in Lancaster, PA. He has scored several spectacular wins, including a third round knockout of The Contender star Aaron Torres. He also scored a first round KO against 13-0 Wayland Willingham and a fourth round KO of 13-0 Isam Khalil.
“I want to thank Pound 4 Pound Promotions, Pat and John Lynch for believing in me and giving us the opportunity to come back,” said Arnaoutis. “Most importantly, I want to thank the Greek fans who continue to support me in Astoria, Queens and the entire Greek community. We’ll be there till the end.
“I’m still the champion of Greece and I won’t let you down. Thanks for believing in me.”
Schuetzen Park is located at 3167 Kennedy Blvd in North Bergen, NJ. First bout begins at 6:30 PM. For more information on Mike Arnaoutis, visit http://www.mightymikearnaoutis.us/
