On Wednesday, March 7, four-time New York Golden Gloves Champion, Will “Power” Rosinsky (14-1, 8KO’s) will be returning to where he made his professional debut when he takes on Zane “The Train” Marks (17-6, 10KO’s) in the co-feature bout on the latest installment of DiBella Entertainment’s Broadway Boxing series at BB King Blues Club and Grill in midtown Manhattan.
Rosinsky-Marks is scheduled for eight rounds in the light heavyweight division. Headlining the card will be undefeated welterweight prospect Alex Perez (15-0, 9KO’s) taking on former NABF junior welterweight champion Francisco “El Gato” Figueroa (20-3-1, 13KO’s).
For the Queens-native Rosinsky, he will be entering the ring coming off the first loss of his professional career. Rosinsky last saw action in October of last year, dropping a highly competitive and entertaining 10-round decision to undefeated Edwin Rodriguez on SHOWTIME’s ShoBox series.
Going into the fight, many felt that Rodriguez, who is ranked as high as number three in the IBF super middleweight world ratings, was going to blow through Rosinsky, but Rosinsky gave him all he could handle in what turned out to be one of the better fights to be aired on SHOWTIME in all of 2011. Rosinsky is now looking to get back to his winning ways as he hopes to position himself back into a major fight in 2012.
“Training camp has been great for this fight, I’m already on weight and ready to go,” said Rosinsky. “I have put the last fight behind me and am ready to go. I can’t sit and dwell on things. Instead I am just focusing on getting a fight with one of the other top guys in the sport so I can prove myself. I’m so excited to be fighting back at home in New York City and at the same place that I made my pro debut. It is always a pleasure to fight in New York. We have the best fans in the world!”
The card is promoted by DiBella Entertainment as part of its “Broadway Boxing” series and will be aired tape-delayed on SNY. Doors open at 6:30PM with the first bout scheduled for 7:30PM.
