 Brothers,
   
  Please mark your calendar for next Saturday, September 16th as we
introduce fight nights at the Kappa Center.  This is a great opportunity to
come out and fellowship with your brothers and experience a great fight, as
well.  For those that did not attend the FSU vs. Miami gathering, we had a
very good time.  You are encouraged to arrive on time since the food will
limited and will be first come first serve.  You are also encouraged to
(BYOB) to satisfy your personal needs for spirits.  Please also feel free to
bring something to share if you wish.
   
  Again, please come out and support this event as many have worked very
hard to make this possible for you to enjoy.  
   
  This is a brothers only event (see flyer below)

  BARRERA VS. JUAREZ II "TOO CLOSE TO CALL"
  Saturday, September 16, 2006 From MGM Grand Garden Arena Live on
Pay-Per-View
  July 15, 2006 
  Two warriors, one ring. Four fists, one great fight. Just 12 rounds, too
close to call. So why not do it again. 

On Saturday, Sept. 16, live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas,
Nev., Marco Antonio Barrera and Rocky Juarez will pick up where they left
off in May as they determine once and for all the best 130-pound fighter in
the world. 

Marco Antonio Barrera (62-4, 42 KOs) has a commitment to excellence few
fighters have today. A world champion in three weight classes with more than
60 wins to his name, it is hard to believe that the Mexico City native is
only 32 years old. He fights with the vigor of a man 10 years his junior and
that has led him to victories over the likes of Erik Morales, Johnny Tapia,
Kevin Kelley, Paulie Ayala, Agapito Sanchez and Kennedy McKinney over the
course of his more than 16-year pro career. And he is not done yet. 

Rocky Juarez (25-2, 18 KOs), however, would like to join Morales, Junior
Jones and Manny Pacquiao as the only fighters to beat Barrera. The 2000 U.S.
Olympic Silver medalist came close to achieving this feat in May. An
aggressive fighter with impressive power who holds wins over Guty Espadas
Jr. and Zahir Raheem, Juarez would like to even the score with Barrera Sept.
16; it is a formidable task but one which he believes he is capable of
fulfilling.
