October 28 (Merrillville, In) – Not many fighters get a second chance to go back and avenge their first loss of their career. For the always electric Angel Hernandez that’s not the case, as the Gary, Ind. welterweight will square off against the rugged veteran Reggie Nash on November 13 at the Radisson Hotel @ Star Plaza at “A Fight To Remember: A Tribute To Octavius James.”

“Angel (Hernandez) has been biting at the bit to get back into the ring against Reggie (Nash) and he will now have that chance,” said C.E.O. of One In A Million Boxing, Inc. Tyree Ortiz. “Angel always is a show stealer and when he gets Nash across from him, I’m sure it will be another electric performance.”

Hernandez makes a triumph return to the ring following a six-round unanimous decision over Guadalupe Diaz back in June at the Tinley Park Convention Center, but it’s the loss to Nash from 2008 that has the 24 year-old with revenge on his mind.

“This is a fight that I wish I had back, but I’m never one to sit and pout and when I get him in the ring I want to make it quick,” said Hernandez of his fight with Nash. “Plus, to have an opportunity to overcome a loss and do it on a night honoring Octavius (James) is going to make it even more enjoyable.”

 

Undefeated heavyweight Michael “Quiet Assassin” Parker will climb through the ropes for the first time since Nov. of 2008 when he claimed his seventh career knockout against Ronald Garr in the first round. All of the Highland resident’s knockouts have come in the first round.

O.I.A.M.’s first V.I.P. hot seat event was a success, as Josh Alan of Hobart won the Ultimate Fight Experience which includes two V.I.P. La -Z-Boy tickets to fight night after winning the free to the public Nintendo Wii boxing tournament at Cagney’s in Hobart.
