Tickets go on sale today for Opening Night of the 26th season of Battle In The Ballroom shows at the Irvine

Marriott, so make plans now to be at the Marriott on Wednesday, February 10th for a great night of boxing

with a little mixed martial arts thrown in. Besides the over 800 season seat holders who have renewed for

2010, and the three new sponsors who have come on board this season, join the tens of thousands of

sports fans who know that in Orange County on six nights a year, the Battle In The Ballroom fights are the

most unique and exciting place to entertain clients and friends!

 

The large crowd expected for the Wednesday, February 10th will not be

disappointed. Undefeated heavyweight 10-0 Joe Hanks returns to

continue his climb into the heavyweight rankings, meeting 16-4

Shannon Miller in his toughest test to date. After a Ballroom battle that

saw over $200 tossed into the ring, Chika Nakamura returns to meet

Jennifer Barber in a female fight that is as evenly matched as possible.

Nakamura is 8-1 and Barber is 9-1, and fans should not miss this fight. Santa Ana's Jimmy Garcia returns

to the ring facing 2-0 Manuel Delcid. Plus, another heavyweight match up see's Hollywood's Chris Davis

meeting Kourtney Boden out of Henderson, NV.

 

Promoter Roy Englebecht will again do what was so successful at the December 17th show, as he will add

another combative sport to the card and put on two mixed martial arts bouts. The Ballroom crowd liked the

action, so returning on the 10th will be 3-1 Chris Saunder vs 2-0 Andy Morales in what will be a 156 pound

battle. And out of LA it will be undefeated Marcus Kowal facing Las Vegas's Titus Holmes in another MMA

war.

 

The Battle In The Ballroom also welcomes new 2010 sponsors including the OC law firm of Callahan &

Blaine, Crane Rental Service, and National Therapeutic Services as well as returning sponsors

Tecate, SC Fuels and BDS Marketing.
