Silver Bow to host inaugural card in Trenton
On Saturday night, January 25th, Silver Bow will stage the Inaugural ChampBox Series event at the CURE Insurance Arena in Trenton, New Jersey.
“It’s an honor to start the ChampBox series in my home state of New Jersey,” said Bill Halkias of Silver Bow. “We have an abundance of Professional and Amateur fighters for the series, and it will provide opportunities for many fighters.”
“Partnering up with the CURE Insurance Arena is important, as it’s a 1st class facility, and located in the capital city of Trenton.”
Headlining the event will be undefeated cruiserweight Mike Hilton.
Hilton of Trenton, is a former National Golden Gloves champion, who currently has a record of 9-0 with seven knockouts.
