Title: “Knockouts and Proposals: A Night at the Vets Club”
In a display of raw power and swift knockouts, Kevin Nagle kept his winning streak alive, cruising to a 7-0 record with all victories coming by way of knockout. Taking center stage for the first time, Nagle headlined the “Fight Night at the Vets Club,” a jam-packed event in the snug Bridgewater Veterans Club in Massachusetts, courtesy of Granite Chin Promotions.
Teaming up for a good cause, the event spotlighted the Fire For Effect Foundation, a Bridgewater organization dedicated to uplifting veterans, first responders, and their families with vital support and community initiatives. Check out their work at www.ffefinc.org.
Hailing from Scituate, Massachusetts, Nagle, a military vet and psychiatric nurse, took on his first six-rounder, just a month after his last victory. He wasted no time demonstrating his dominance, leveraging his 287 ½ pound stature to overpower Alfred Trevino with a body shot that sent Trevino to the mat in the first round, wrapping things up in the second with a couple of precision right-handers.
Post-fight, Nagle shared how he and his coach, Steve Vukosa, focused on speeding things up, moving and punching faster, showing off improved agility and effectively cornering Trevino.
Joe Bush, a welterweight from Marshfield and a crowd favorite, dazzled with his precision, knocking down Rakim Johnson four times before sealing the deal in the third round with a double left-hook.
The night’s standout battle saw Greg Bono and Bruno Dias duke it out to a majority draw, with judges split, making it a memorable back-and-forth clash.
Anthony Andreozzi made a triumphant return after overcoming injuries and surgeries, dispatching Igor Pessoa with a second-round TKO, marking a strong comeback exactly a year after his first surgery.
Ricky Ford not only claimed victory over Erick Alves with sharp combinations and a knockout left hook but also won hearts by proposing to his girlfriend in the ring, who joyfully said yes.
Opening the event, Ryan Clark dominated Jay Gregory in a rematch, controlling the fight from start to end for a unanimous decision win.
The entire spectacle was streamed live by Bridgewater TV, promising more action as Granite Chin gears up for “Pandemonium at The Palladium 3” in Worcester come March 23rd.
