This Saturday night history will be made at Resorts in

feature a trio of Irish brothers. The Hyland Brothers

KOs, Irish Featherweight Champion, Former I.B.F

Champion, and former EU Super-Bantamweight Champion).
The Hyland Brothers will headline a night of boxing at
Resorts Casino Hotel in Atlantic City, New Jersey on
Saturday, January 28, 2012. Patrick will put his undefeated
record on the line against tough super featherweight Manny
Lucaro (26-8 (14 KOs), Paul will face an opponent to be
named and Eddie will be up against Franklin Gonzalez (14-0,
10 KOs). While in the United States, they are trained by
two- time World Champion, Tracy Patterson and their father,
Paddy who has trained them since birth. The event, to be
titled "The Irish Invasion," will mark the first time that
three brothers, who are all Irish champions have fought on
the same card in America.
It will be a great test for Paul Hyland as Lucero has faced
the cream of the crop in the boxing world.
He has faced he pound for pound best in Manny Pacquiao as
well as world champion Daniel Ponce DeLeon and undefeated
prospects Valdimer Periera, Jorge Diaz and Diego Magdaleno
“We are incredibly excited to introduce The Hyland Brothers
and Team Snooki Boxing. We’ve seen what these boys can do,
and expect nothing less than continued success and ‘living
up to the hype’ for each of them here in the States,” said
Mike Pascale, Vice President of Final Round Promotions. “The
Irish Invasion” will be presented by Final Round Promotions
on Saturday, January 28th, 2012.
A packed undercard has been assembled that features one of
the top Heavyweights in the United States plus a bevy of
undefeated prospects.
Derric Rossy of Medford, New York has a record of 25-5 with
fourteen knockouts was just one fight away from fighting for
the Heavyweight championship of the world and will look to
get on track when he takes on veteran Livin Castillo (16-10,
10 KOs) of Atlantic City.
This will be a good test for Rossy as Castillo has fought
just about every top Heavyweight such as Jean-Marc Mormeck,
Oleg Maskaev, Alexander Povetkin, Bruce Seldon, Eddie
Chambers and Chazz Witherspoon to name a few.
Three undefeated prospects will look to keep their perfect
marks intact as Jr. Lightweight Chazz McDowell (4-0,1KO) of
Yonkers NY battles Phil Nazario (0-1) in a four round bout.

(6-0, 2KO’s) battles Alvaro Morales (6-10-6) of Las Vegas.
