DiBella Entertainment’s Broadway Boxing returns to the Aviator
Sports and Events Center in Brooklyn, NY, for the latest
installment of the popular and long-running series. Headlining
the card will be undefeated prospects Chris Galeano (9-0, 1KO)
and Shawn Cameron (10-0, 5KO’s) as the two square off in a
10-round battle for NYC bragging rights and with the New York
State middleweight title on the line.
“Fighting for the NYS title is truly a blessing and a tremendous
opportunity. I am going to take advantage of this stepping stone
and plan on putting on a spectacular performance come November
20th. I am excited to see the smile on my father’s face when we
win our first title together and take a major step in moving on
to much bigger and better things in my career,” said Galeano.
“This is a great fight, especially that it is taking place right
here in New York. You have two local, undefeated kids on the
rise, pushing their limits to get to that next level. Come
November 20th, I will be ready for whatever Chris Galeano brings
to the ring,” said Cameron.
“This Broadway Boxing main event is a throwback to when New York
club show boxing was in its heyday. You have two undefeated
prospects, both former New York Golden Gloves champions, from
different boroughs, that are now meeting in hands-down the
toughest fight of either of their young professional careers.
The winner will not only claim New York bragging rights but also
cement himself as someone to watch in the coming years in the
middleweight division,” said promoter Lou DiBella.
Hailing from Bronx, Galeano won nearly every major amateur
competition, including the New York Golden Gloves and USA
National Championships at 165 pounds in 2013, which propelled
him to a #1 ranking in the US. Co-promoted by rap star and actor
50 Cent, the 22-year-old Galeano is already 4-0 this year and
will be looking to shine when he takes on his cross-borough
rival Cameron.
A 2007 Golden Gloves champion, Cameron first began boxing while
enlisted in the U.S. Army, where he did two tours in Iraq.
Cameron turned pro in 2012, juggling his time between being a
fulltime New York City Transit Authority Policeman and his
boxing training. The Brooklynite caught the eye of DiBella
earlier this year and quickly joined the DBE roster in January,
reeling off three consecutive victories over the next six
months. At 32 years old, Cameron is 10 years older than Galeano
and is looking to quickly move up the ranks of the 160lb.
division. A win over the former amateur standout will force the
middleweight division to take notice.
