This championship card, headlined by the World Boxing Council Featherweight World Title fight between Erik “El Terrible” Morales and Paulie Ayala, is promoted by Bob Arum and Top Rank, Inc. and will emanate from the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, NV. Brian Adams (6’6”, 270 pounds) currently holds the All Japan World Tag-Team Championship along with partner Bryan Clark, having defeated Keiji Mutoh & Taiyo Kea on July 17, 2002 in Osaka. Adams, who has had a long and successful career in professional wrestling, is looking to make a huge impact on the boxing world. Adams has received glowing evaluations from several trainers in the St. Petersburg area, and is currently being trained by Dan Birmingham. “I’ve never felt anyone hit the mitts so hard,” Birmingham stated. “He takes this very seriously… and I think he’s going to impress a lot of people.” Among Birmingham’s other impressive charges is IBF Junior Middleweight Champion Winky Wright. Adams will be challenging an as-yet unnamed heavyweight opponent in what is being billed as a special attraction on the “Never Surrender” pay-per-view November 16th.
