14-0 middleweight prospect Francis “Frank The Tank” Hogan Excited to be fighting close to home

Hogan was a 2020 USA Boxing Olympic Team alternate, as well as a 2019 New England Golden Gloves Champion.

As a popular Irish American boxer, Hogan should benefit in terms of added fans’ support from passionate supporters of two Irish fighters who will be in action, light heavyweight Tommy “The Governor” Hyde (5-0, 4 KOs), of Cork, and Thomas “The Kid” O’Toole (7-0, 5 KOs), of Galway, both in six-round matches.

Hyde, a three-time Irish National Champion, will face an opponent to be determined, while O’Toole faces Scott “Scottie Bombz” Lampert (5-8, 4 KOs), the Massachusetts Cruiserweight Champion, for the vacant United States Boxing Federation (USBF) cruiserweight title.

The main event pits former New England Welterweight Champion Mike “Bad Man, Ohan, Jr. (18-2, 9 KOs), of Holbrook, and Haverhill’s Harry “The Hitman” Gigliotti (9-4, 3 KOs), reigning ABF Atlantic super lightweight title holder, battling in a junior welterweight non-title fight.

In an eight-round middleweight unification fight, USBF titleholder Julien “Black Dragon” Baptiste (5-3, 2 KOs), of Woburn, takes on Massachusetts champion Jamer Jones (3-1, 3 KOs), of Pittsfield, in the co-featured event.

Undefeated Lowell lightweight Gabriel “The Menace” Morales (7-0, 4 KOs) and unbeaten Methuen middleweight Luke “The Quiet Storm” Iannuccilli (6-0, 3 KOs) – Reyes Boxing stablemates with Gigliotti — will also be in action, respectively, versus Nathan Benichou (2-16-1, 2 KOs) and Ryan Thomas Clark (2-4, 1 KO).

Undefeated Salem (MA) welterweight Kenny “Lionheart” Larson, a 2016 New England Golden Gloves ‘Novice” Champion, will face Alfred Keenan Raymond (1-6-1) in a scheduled six-round match.
