In an event entitled “The Legacy Continues: Foreman, Tiberi and Seldon,” the sons of three former professional boxers will take to the ring at Resorts Atlantic City in bouts that are part of the sons’ own fledgling professional careers.
Dee Lee Promotions, Inc., in association with Resorts, will present heavyweight George “Monk” Foreman (son of heavyweight great Big George Foreman Sr.), featherweight Joey Tiberi of the fighting Tiberi clan of Delaware, and super middleweight Isiah Seldon, the son of former Atlantic City heavyweight champion Bruce Seldon.
The fight card will take place March 4 at Resorts, and all three dads are expected to be on hand to cheer on their pugilistic progeny. Monk Foreman is 10-0 with nine knockouts and the junior Seldon is also unbeaten at 3-0.
