Said Pesoli of the new venture, “It’s a great opportunity for Chicagoland fights fans to hear not only about 8 Count Productions events, like our Night of Honor this Friday night, but we’ll also focus on recent fights that have taken place along with upcoming national shows like the Main Events/ESPN Pay-Per-View this coming Saturday night. Our plan is to have local fighters and all the movers and shakers in the industry along with champions and future champions on with us each week.”
Continued Pesoli, “Francisco is a terrific prospect and true crowd pleaser in his first couple of fights. Carl Moretti’s going to discuss Saturday night’s fantastic ESPN show.
