Kimbo Slice Boxing Debut
Opponent Announced
An opponent has been chosen for Kevin "Kimbo Slice"
Ferguson's professional boxing debut on August 13 at the
Buffalo Run Casino in Miami, Oklahoma, and he is
Springfield, Missouri's James Wade (0-1).
The two will meet in the four-round heavyweight main event
of a Gary Shaw Productions and Tony Holden Promotions night
of boxing.
Wade lost his debut in January of this year, but will be
looking to make history in his second fight.
"Just like in MMA, Kimbo Slice is walking around with
bull's-eye on his back. His opponents know they can make
themselves known to the world if they can take him out,"
said Jared Shaw, Team Kimbo Promotional Advisor. "To Kimbo
it's a pro boxing debut. To James Wade, this is a world
championship fight."
According to Shaw, Slice's goal in his first fight will be
to prove with his performance that he always belonged in a
boxing ring.
Tickets for the professional boxing debut of Kimbo Slice are
priced at $38, $48 and $68 and are available through
www.buffalorun.com.
