“NO EXCUSES” REMATCH DRAWS STARS FOR THE 61-SECOND KNOCKOUT!
It took Kendall Holt just 61 seconds of the first round to KO challenger Ricardo Torres when Planet Hollywood Resort Top Rank boxing at the Thomas & Mack Arena.
Casino chieftain Robert Earl, along with his elegant dad and Top Rank head honcho Bob Arum welcomed Paris Hilton and beau-friend Benji Madden along with former champ Mike Tyson, singers Steve Lawrence and Clint Holmes, New York Giants star running back Brandon Jacobs, ‘N Synch manager Johnny Wright and showman Jeff Beacher ringside.
Our Luxe Life photographer, Tom Donoghue captured an incredible study of photo-journalism fireworks at its finest in this start-to-finish collection of the boxers. He was ringside as they trained, ringside at their weigh-in and ringside as they fell in defeat: Lamont Peterson won a 9th round TKO over Rogelio Castaneda, Carlos Vinan defeated Andrew Cancio, Don Mouton scored a TKO over Josiah Judah, Michael Franco defeated Javier Lagos, Glen Gonzalez defeated Robert Da Luz, Omar Coffi defeated Trinidad Mary and Joseph Judah defeated Luis Tapia. The only draw of the night was between the ladies Johanna Mendez and Ana Julation!
Robert tells me he’s hoping to continue his exciting fight promotions, at least every other month, through the end of the year—alternating with his ongoing Hollywood studio movie premieres.
