Starfight Productions, Inc. returns with another installment of “Fight Night at The A La Carte” on May 9, 2008 at the A La Carte Event Pavilion, Tampa Florida. The main event features resurgent junior welterweight Derrick Samuels (14-3-1, 3KO), who is coming off a knockout win over Corey Peterson earlier this year.

Also featured on the card is 2008 US Olympic Trials Silver Medalist, Keith Thurman (4-0, 4 KO) from Clearwater, Florida.  Thurman is widely considered as one of the top welterweight prospects in all of boxing and the most devastating puncher to turn pro from the amateur ranks in years.  He is coming of a vicious knockout of Carlos Pena on April 4, 2008. 

Thurman will look to continue his perfect record with a knockout win. 

The event’s undercard features some of the best boxing prospects in the St. Petersburg and Tampa area’s including Junior Middleweight Gino McClellan (2-0), Featherweight Carlos Rivera (11-3-2, 4KO), Featherweight Jenna Shiver (6-2-1, 1KO), Middleweight Ahsaundi Gibbs (6-0, 2KO) and Heavyweight Nic Ianuzzi (5-0, 3KO).
