Riddick Bowe to Be Special Guest at Fantasy Springs Casino June 2nd

Former Undisputed Heavyweight World Champion Riddick Bowe will greet fans at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino as part of the June 2 TeleFutura televised “Sólo Boxeo Tecate” event featuring the battle between Andrew “Chango” Cancio of Blythe and 2000 Olympic Silver Medalist Rocky Juarez.

The Brooklyn born “Big Daddy,” a two-time world champion and an Olympic Silver Medalist, is best remembered for his trilogy of fights with Evander Holyfield and two brutal bouts with Andrew Golota.

He won his first title by outpointing Evander Holyfield in November of 1992, but later lost the belt in a rematch with Holyfield in November of 1993.

Most recently, Bowe has decided to take his sports career in a new direction, professional wrestling. His goal is to capture the Rivalry Championship Heavyweight title belt and become the first person to win both boxing and wrestling world championships.

Come meet Bowe at the June 2 Solo Boxeo event, which is presented by Golden Boy Promotions and sponsored by Cerveza Tecate.

Doors open at 6:30pm PT on fight night and the first bell rings at 7:00pm PT.  The TeleFutura broadcast begins at 11:00pm ET/PT.  Tickets, priced at $25, $35 and $45 are on sale now and available for purchase at the Fantasy Springs Box Office, by calling (800) 827-2946 or online at www.fantasyspringsresort.com
