Loew Promises Beatdown For Vera; Also-Shaw Signs Roach Cruiser

CALIFORNIA,PA (Columbus Day 2010) — Like Christopher Columbus, BRIAN VERA, an alumnus of the reality series The Contender. is about tomake a new discovery, courtesy former World Middleweight Champion KELLY The Ghost PAVLIK. Pavlik (36-2, 32 KOs), of Youngstown, OH., and Vera (17-5, 11 KOs), of Austin, TX, battle in a 10-round super middleweight (164-pound limit) rumble Saturday, November 13, headlining the pay-per-view undercard of the Manny Pacquiao vs. Antonio Margarito World Super Welterweight Championship broadcastlive from the $1.2 billion Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, TX.

Brian Vera is going todiscover on November 13that his new world really is flat … flat on his back, said Pavliks trainer Jack Loew, from Team Pavlik’s training camp in California, PA, located outside Pittsburgh. Kelly entered this training camp in superb condition, weighing less than 170 pounds. After hearing what Vera has already been saying about us, he should consider wearing a life vest into the ring because Kelly is taking him into deep water on November 13. Like the Ohio State Buckeyes,Kelly islooking to return to the top spot and it starts with the sinking of the U.S.S. Brian Vera of Austin, Texas. I hope there will be a microphone in Veras corner so the world will hear them issue the order to abandon ship!
