Citing respect for the Arizona boxing Community, Fan Base Promotions has moved the Jesus “El Martillo” Gonzales-Henry “Sugar Poo” Buchanan bout to Glendale’s Jobbing.Com Arena, a venue much larger than the previously planned Celebrity Theatre location. Officially, Fan Base never booked the Celebrity because the promotions company could never come to an arrangement that was satisfactory to both parties. Press releases were sent out updating the card but tickets were never put on sale because Fan Base wasn’t comfortable with the Celebrity Theatre.
The date of July 8 for the fight remains unchanged and the new venue means the fight will attract and accommodate tourists in town for the MLB All Star activities. Fan Base spokesperson Karla Vandenberg told a reporter recently that invitations are being sent to Major League teams and the July 8 Event expects a lot of Celebrity guest to attend.
She also went on state that tickets prices will be kept reasonable and Fan Base will offer a 25% discount on regular priced seats for Active duty military personnel with a valid ID. The community conscious organization is offering a2-1 ticket deal in at least 1one section of the venue. All discounted tickets must be purchased through the Jobbing.Com Box-Office. Tickets officially go on sale June 4.
