That’s what boxing in New York City is all about!”

Salita’s Star of David Promotions has crafted a top-notch slate, topped by cruiserweight contender Steve Bujaj. The 12-0 Albanian native snapped up the NY State cruiser crown at the Millennium in February, and Salita promises he will be matched tough on May 15 as he continues his push to a world title. Bujaj will bring a rooting section down from Yonkers, where he resides. “Bujaj is an excellent fighter, who is looking to climb up the contender ladder,” Salita said. “He is looking to place himself into title contention this year.”

Jarrell Miller, a promising heavyweight just signed to Star of David, will also see action.

Middleweight prospect Steve Martinez wowed the Millennium crowd with his power-punching style at the Theater in February, and Salita is bringing the 14-1 Bronx boxer back for an encore on May 15. Opponent Taronze Washington will be flown in from Texas, having won two of his last three fights, with a desire to silence Martinez’ fans traveling down from the Bronx. “Steve Martinez is back in the ring again and is looking to put on another exciting performance,” Salita said. “Steve is looking to fight top contenders in the division.”

Boxing fans will be entertained by the talented hitter Amanda Serrano, a Puerto Rican-born Brooklyn resident who boasts a 20-1 record. The former WBC super featherweight champion craves another world title shot, ASAP, and needs a win in Brighton Beach to maintain momentum.
