“Gonzalez, a young and rising star who has made a name for himself at the Paramount in Huntington, LI, in Star Boxing’s Rockin’ Fights series, captured the ABO Intercontinental Championship in September 2018, with a unanimous decision over JOHNNY “HITMAN” HERNANDEZ in an epic battle. The fight was a war of attrition and Gonzalez earned his championship in a bout which proved both his fighting heart and talent. Now the spotlight is much greater as he challenges former World Champion Algieri for the WBO International Strap.
Not only is a possible world title shot on the line in this bout but bragging rights in the Star Boxing stable are being contested. This is a fight where both fighters will be calling on all their will and skill and it should be a crowd pleasing slam-bang affair from bell-to-bell.” – Boxing Insider

On the under card of The Contender finale shown live on both Twitter and EPIX, DeVaun “Unique” Lee (10-4-1 5KO’s) opened the show against the vastly experienced fringe contender Tyrone Brunson (26-7-2 24KO’s) of Philadelphia, PA. The bout started in Lee’s favor as he was able to outbox Brunson in the opening round of the 6 round fight, using his reach to keep the older Brunson at bay at a slow pace. The bout picked up a bit as Brunson started letting his hands go a bit more as he searched for a place to land his vaunted right hand that has erased the consciousnesses of 24 previous fighters. Lee was smart, he kept a tight guard and didn’t allow himself to open too much to allow any counters in, Brunson was also careful and the two traded in close range but never made it ugly.
