Cristobal “The Nightmare” Arreola to take on Manuel “El Toro” Quezada
Jul 10th
Cristobal “The Nightmare” Arreola to take on Manuel “El Toro” Quezada in the main event of ESPN2 “Friday Night Fights” telecast on August 13 from the Citizens Business Bank Arena in Ontario, CA.
Only one will walk out of the ring keeping their dream alive of becoming the first Heavyweight World Champion of Mexican decent.
Knockout artist Arreola (28-2, 25 KOs) came up short in his first shot at making boxing history when he lost to WBC Heavyweight Champion Vitali Klitschko last September, and most recently took a detour to history in his April loss to former two-time World Champion Tomasz Adamek in Ontario.
Hard-hitting Quezada (29-5, 18 KOs), who had climbed as high as the #4 heavyweight in the WBC, and also recently sustained an upset loss at the hands of spoiler Jason Gavern is looking to jump right back into title contention with a win over Arreola.
The August 13 event is being presented by Goossen Tutor Promotions.

Molina comes back to stop Lundy in 11th for NABO lightweight title
LINCOLN, Rhode Island (July 9, 2010) – Challenger John Molina, Jr. needed a knockout to win and he did just that, stopping defending champion and previously unbeaten “Hammerin” Hank Lundy for the NABO lightweight title tonight on ESPN Friday Night Fights, live from Twin River Event Center in Lincoln, RI.
The “Let Freedom Ring” card was presented by Jimmy Burchfield’s Classic Entertainment and Sports, Inc., in association with Goossen-Tutor Promotions.
After being out-boxed for seven rounds, Molina dropped WBO No. 7 rated Lundy with a counter right-hook in the eighth round, giving John new life and momentum. Referee Ricky Gonzalez ended-up halting the action in the 11th round, somewhat controversially, as Molina pounded Lundy on the ropes.
Lundy (18-1-1, 10 KOs) was led after 10 rounds by scores of 98-91 twice and 97-92.

Molina (20-1, 16 KOs) is traveling across the country from California to Rhode Island to challenge the outspoken Lundy (18-0-1, 10 KOs), now rated No. 7 by the World Boxing Organization, in the 10-round main event on the July 9th “Let Freedom Ring” show, presented by Jimmy Burchfield’s Classic Entertainment and Sports, Inc.

“Lundy talks a lot and as far as I’m concerned he can keep it up. As a matter of fact, I like it. It’s been very amusing. I’m going to do my talking in the ring and he’ll know what I mean when I walk away with the belt. I have respect for him and what he has accomplished but come fight time nothing will stop me. I am going to do what I have to do to be victorious.”
