Boxing Insider Promotions returns to the Tropicana Atlantic City Showroom on Saturday, June 13, 2026, as undefeated South Jersey heavyweights Bruce Seldon Jr. and Josh Popper headline the biggest local heavyweight showdown the region has seen in years. First bell 7:30 PM ET. Tickets are on sale now at Ticketmaster. https://www.ticketmaster.com/boxing-insider-live-professional-boxing-atlantic-city-new-jersey-06-13-2026/event/02006495CFC0F3D8

Josh “The Hammer” Popper of Egg Harbor Township trains at Bredwinners Gym in Manhattan under Jose Luis Guzman. The former Rowan University standout earned NFL minicamp invitations from the Cardinals and Colts before turning to boxing, and two of his wins have come right here at the Tropicana.

Bruce “2.0” Seldon Jr. of Smithville trains at the Pleasantville Recreation Center under Julio Sanchez. The son of former WBA Heavyweight Champion Bruce Seldon Sr. and an Absegami graduate, he has built five wins on the Boxing Insider stage at the Trop. He has never left the building without a win.

“Two undefeated South Jersey heavyweights, both with history at the Tropicana, both willing to step up and fight each other. That doesn’t happen in 2026,” said promoter Larry Goldberg. “This is the fight everyone locally wanted to see. June 13 is going to be a night Atlantic City remembers.”

South Jersey fan favorite Julio “Jewelz” Sanchez III takes on Shawn Rall, and John Leonardo Jr. returns to the Tropicana looking to build toward a regional title shot later this year.

The card is rounded out with Jahanzeb Rizwan, Yoel Angeloni, Kahshad Elliott, Williams, David Malul, and Daiyaan Butt, all in separate bouts with opponents to be announced shortly .
