August 16 at Oceanside Events Center in Revere, MA
QUINCY, Mass. (August XX, 2025) – Some of the best and most popular boxers in the Northeast will be showcased August 16th on the stacked “Oceanside Prize Fights” card, presented by Granite Chin Promotions (GCP), at Oceanside Events Center (formerly the Wonderland Ballroom) in Revere, Massachusetts. All the action will be streamed on www.BXNGTV.com.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Quincy Firefighters Cancer Foundation, a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide unwavering support to firefighters and their families as they face the challenges of occupational cancer, ensuring they receive the care, resources, and assistance they need. Go to www.quincyfirecancerfoundation.com for information.
“Promoting in the North Shore has been something that was always in the works, but all the pieces had to be there to put on a great event,” GCP promoter Chris Traiettiexplained. “You only get one chance to make at making a good impression. I am incredibly pleased with how this card turned out. It will be an awesome night of the area’s most popular fighters and Granite Chin will once again be raising money for a great cause, the Quincy Fore Cancer Foundation. At the end of the night a new WBC U.S. Silver Champion will be crowned, Shea Willcox will make his home debut, and the local fight scene will come together to support our local firefighters.”
Throwback fighters James “Pitbull” Perkins (13-3-1, 9 KOs) and Anthony “The Gentle Savage” Andreozzi (7-4, 3 KOs) will clash in the 8-round main event for the vacant World Boxing Council (WBC) USA Silver Light Heavyweight Championship.
Perkins vs. Andreozzi is a terrific match-up of entertaining fighters. The 32-year-old Perkins, A gravedigger from nearby Lynn (MA), is a powerfully aggressive puncher who doesn’t mind taking a few punches to land one damaging shot, while former Massachusetts Middleweight ChampionAndreozzi, of Swansea (MA), is a grinder who enjoys exchanging punches from start to finish.
Two of the most popular and promising prospects in New England, Everett (MA) junior welterweight “Showtime” Shea Willcox (3-0, 3 KOs) and Mansfield (MA) junior middleweight James “The Slim Reaper” Perella (19-0, 13 KOs), will provide chief support.
The 23-year-old Willcox, a member of two Everett High’s Super Bowl, Division One football championship teams, is arguably the most popular pro boxer in the Northeast. A standout amateur boxer, he was also selected as the “Most Outstanding Boxer” at last year’s New England Golden Gloves Championships, in addition to being a 2018 Rocky Marciano Tournament Champion. He will throw down in a 4-round co-featured event against Aldimar Silva (22-28, 14 KOs), of Brazil.
Perella, 32, was a celebrated amateur career (120-20)who captured 3 New England Golden Gloves titles, as well as a silver medal at the prestigious National PAL Tournament. The gifted fighter with one of the best nicknames will take on former FECARBOX Welterweight Champion Saul “Navajo” Corral (31-24, 20 KOs) in the 8-round Special Junior Middleweight Attraction.
Fighting on the undercard, all in 4-rounders, are Hyde Park (MA) junior featherweight Jennifer Perella (2-1, 1 KO), the 2024 New England Golden Gloves silver medalist, vs. Sarah “Switch Kick” Click (2-10-1, 0 KOs); unbeaten Springfield (MA) welterweight Eric “The Gladiator” Goff (7-0, 5 KOs) versus “Jabbin” Joe Wilson, Jr. (3-8, 0 KOs), Lawrence (MA) junior middleweight Dimas “Jimmy” Colon makes his pro debut versus Javonni Bennett (0-2), and South Boston cruiserweight Charlie “The City Point Sicilian” LoGrasso (1-0, 1 KO) meets Erick Alves.
