Fightnight Live Features Joey Dawejko Main Event TONIGHT


SEE YOU IN SEPTEMBER: FIGHTNIGHT LIVE TO AIR THREE CARDS IN FOUR WEEKS BEGINNING THURSDAY WITH JOE HAND PROMOTIONS AT PARX CASINO

Series is Powered by Everlast; FloSports subscription plans start at $12.50 per month.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (Aug. 29, 2022) – The bell will ring frequently during the month of September – and not just in the classroom – as FloSports FIGHTNIGHT LIVE Powered by Everlast goes “back to school” with three cards from three different cities and three different promoters to open its Fall 2022 slate. The Autumn action begins with an outstanding Joe Hand Promotions card this Thursday, Sept. 1, at 7 p.m. with a clash of heavyweights.

“We’re planning for five fights between now and Thanksgiving, and we’re pleased to deliver all of that action for a low subscription cost on FloCombat,” said Mark Fratto, Principal and Director of Business Development, Linacre Media. “We start this Thursday – a great weeknight show featuring the return of one of our favorites, Joey ‘The Tank’ Dawejko, as he meets an entertaining heavyweight opponent in ‘Fly’ Mike Marshall. Was Joey responsible for a brutal sparring knockdown that caused Anthony Joshua to lose three of his last five fights and all of his belts? We’ll get a full report from Siddique Farooqi and Michael Woods – founder of NYFIGHTS.com – on Thursday on Fightnight Live.”

Fightnight Live started in 2017.

As part of FIGHTNIGHT LIVE’s blockbuster multi-event deal with FloSports, Thursday’s 7 p.m. card will air in its entirety on FloCombat. FIGHTNIGHT LIVE plans to continue to deliver a regular slate of boxing and MMA cards via the subscription-based FloSports platform. Fight fans can witness every explosive knockout and drama-dripped decision from regional rising stars – as well as the 10,000-plus events streamed annually by FloSports via the web, the FloSports mobile app (iOS and Android), or connected TV platforms such as AppleTV, Roku, FireTV, Vizio and others – for as little as $12.50 per month. Fight fans can subscribe with a monthly or annual membership today at https://www.flocombat.com/ to be ready for a full schedule of FIGHTNIGHT LIVE events in 2022.

Additional FIGHTNIGHT LIVE programming – such as event previews, some undercards and highlights – will be available through the FIGHTNIGHT LIVE Facebook channel, which boasts nearly 88,000 fans and almost 100,000 followers, and on the Everlast page which is followed by more than 441,000.

On Thursday, popular heavyweight Dawjeko (21-10-4, 12 KOs) of Philadelphia returns to the ring to headline an eight-bout card in an eight-round contest against “Fly” Mike Marshall (6-3-1, 4 KOs) of Harlem, now Danbury, Conn. Daiyaan Butt (10-2, 5 KOs) out of Philadelphia, PA, will meet veteran Tyrone Luckey (15-17-4) of Galloway, NJ, in a six-round contest. In a four-round middleweight bout, Soslan Alborov (0-1) out of Philadelphia, PA, will take on Brendan O’Callaghan (2-1, 1 KO), in an intra-city rivalry on Fightnight Live.

Now in its fifth season, FIGHTNIGHT LIVE is the fan-friendly platform that – among other aspects – prides itself on creating a home for rising combat sports stars and regional boxing and MMA promotions. FIGHTNIGHT LIVE has showcased more than 950 fighters and 26 promotions during 62 live event broadcasts from 26 different cities and three countries since May 2017, and in doing so, the platform has generated the loyal interest of fight fans from across the United States and around the globe, including significant audiences in Mexico, the United Kingdom and other parts of Europe, and even fans in South America, Asia and Australia.
