One week from today, Yerington,
Nevada's Jesse Brinkley steps in the ring against arguably the
toughest and most dangerous opponent of his career when he faces
Curtis Stevens. The bout will headline ESPN's Friday Night Fights and
is an eliminator for the #2 spot in the IBF and could lead to a world
title shot later in the year.
The fight will take place in nearby
Reno, the adopted home of Brinkley, who has become quite a draw as
their main event under the banner of Let's Get It On Promotions since
signing with them just over two years ago.
