Caribbean Fury, the brainchild of local boxing promoter Carwyn Holland is getting international attention.
According to a release from the promotions group, they have been overwhelmed with overseas calls over the past week and has now landed a part-sponsor with Canadian firm “Jensen Strauss Boxing Limitee” coming on board to sponsor the fight between Canadian Richard Reittie and Guyana’s Mark Murray and the firm has also signaled its intention to be on board the next “Fury” in a major way.
“Jensen Strauss Boxing Limitee is a strategic boxing promotion company represented by its agent and top Canadian attorney Mike Schmidt. Their most current involvement includes current WBA, WIBA Super-Bantamweight Champion Lisa “Bad News” Browns non-title fight appearance at Casino Rama on the undercard of Guyanese Troy Ross vs Carl Handy and exclusive marketing rights to Al Bernstein in Canada, with Al Bernstein providing commentary to last months televised NABA title fight, Logan Cotton vs Buzz Grant, in Canada.
It is Jensen Strauss Boxing Limitee’s desire to work on future projects with Holland Promotions and this will hopefully be the beginning in a Country, which as Schmidt stated, is rich in boxing history. “We would love to bring people like Al Bernstein to Guyana to share broadcasting duties with Guyana Broadcasting talent on fight cards, and there are a multitude of other promotional aspects that will hopefully bring opportunities to the table for all involved added Schmidt. ”
“Richard Reittie is a young Canadian fighter who debuted in Canada this past January. A boxer in style similar to the great welterweight Marlon Starling and it is Reittie’s hope to celebrate his Caribbean Island birth heritage by performing for the first time in Guyana on a card headlined by top ranked talent. Reittie is still in the development stage, with only two fights at this time, and thanks the promoters for this opportunity,” the release stated.
