[The_budweiser]

On Saturday, August 27th, Kevin "Kid" Rooney will make his Atlantic City debut when he meets New Jersey's pro-debuting Carlos Perez at the Tropicana Showroom in the Tropicana Casino and Resort. Rooney-Perez is scheduled for four rounds in the jr. middleweight division, and will be one of the featured undercard bouts on Joe DeGuardia's Star Boxing promoted show, featuring heavyweight fan-favorite Vinny Maddalone, and Atlantic City's Shamone "The Truth" Alvarez in separate bouts.

 

 

 

"So far Kevin has been very exciting to watch," stated Joe DeGuardia, CEO and President of Star Boxing. "Not only are his performances inside the ring exciting, but it's apparent he has learned a thing or two from me about promoting during his time here at Star Boxing," said DeGuardia with a chuckle. "In all seriousness though he really has promoted himself well in the two fights, and had great turn outs come see him from the NYC and upstate New York areas."

 

 

 

Rooney, the son of world renowned trainer, Kevin Rooney, and publicist for Star Boxing, made his pro-debut back in April on ESPN's Friday Night Fights STAR BOXINGon a Star Boxing promoted card at the Mohegan Sun. In that bout, Rooney, dropped his opponent twice, once in the first and once again in the second, before going on to win a dominate four round unanimous decision. Rooney's two knockdowns earned him that evening's Just For Men: "Punch of the Night".
