Schenectady, NY (April 8, 2022) – A homecoming is in store Saturday night at the Rivers Casino Event Center when Schenectady’s own undefeated super welterweight, JAHYAE “GOLDEN CHILD” BROWN (10-0 8KO’s) steps in against veteran GILBERTO PEREIRA dos SANTOS (16-12 12KO’s) in 6 rounds of action.
Brown recently earned a TKO victory in Colombia this past December. Prior to that he defeated Dormedes Potes (then 12-2-1 9KO’s) in April to win the ABF Super Welterweight Title. Since turning professional in 2019, Brown has shown both boxing prowess and a knack for finding the knockout, with 8 of his 10 professional fights coming to a close before the final bell.
As for his hometown debut Saturday night, Brown is ready, “I think about my fight every day,” said Brown in an interview with News 10 ABC. “I play it in my head, like the crowd, me walking out, everybody cheering loud, just staying composed. I’m just there to make a statement and put on for the whole 518 and stay focused.”
The main event features a double cruiserweight championship clash as Italian, SIMONE “TYSON” FEDERICI (18-2-1 8KO’s) puts his WBC CA Title on the line against Ukrainian born, Pittsburgh based, LYUBOMYR “DEMOLITION MAN” PINCHUK (14-2-1 8KO’s) who puts his NABA Gold Title on the line.
