Loaded "Tinley Park Rumble" Card To Explode With A World Class Main Event And Star-Studded UndercardMay 8 (Merrillville, In) - The one main event that has the star-power capable of following up the "Merciless" Mary McGee vs. Kristy "Rose" Follmar world championship extravaganza is a feud that goes beyond the ring and was originally scheduled for "Date With Destiny" but rescheduled for the "Tinley Park Rumble" on Friday, June 12th at the Tinley Park Convention Center, 18501 Harlem Ave. in Tinley Park, IL.
Michael "Midnight Stalker" Walker (19-2-2, 12 KOs) vs. "Iron" Orphius Waite (5-0, 3 KOs) is a main event that started inside the Octavius James' One In A Million Inc.'s training facility, as two of the world's best middleweights were once sparring partners.
Walker and Waite will never be seen enjoying dinner together, but boxing fans will have an opportunity to enjoy their world class main event battle that is guaranteed to be a bone crunching crowd pleaser. "Walker and Waite is one of those fights that will have fight fans standing on there feet," said Octavius James, C.E.O. of One In A Million Inc.
"These two guys don't like each other and when they get in that ring it's going to be bruising main event that I'm excited to see," added James. "One In A Million is looking to bring back the Age of the Superfight, with McGee vs. Follmar and Walker vs. Waite, we are definitely putting together some of the best fights the world of boxing has seen in a very long time."
"I could tell (Waite) was trying to size me up during our sparring sessions," said Walker. "Orphius wants to be me and he is trying to fight like I do, I'm ready and he is ready so let's get it on, he is messing with a different level of fighter and I don't feel any respect at all from him, but I will get that respect when I whoop him without the head gear," Said Walker.
"When we would walk into the training facility we both got that weird vibe and when we sparred I left his face battered a few times even with the head gear," said Waite. "It's a very big fight, biggest fight of my career and secondly it's going to be a stepping stone in my career, (Walker) had his chance to shine and he didn't do too well and now it's my turn." Waite said.
Also scheduled as part of another sensational undercard are unbeaten fighters Welterweight Ed "2 Fast 2 Furious" Ochoa (8-0, 8 KOs), middleweight Josh Crouch (4-0, 4 KOs) and super featherweight Evette Collazo (4-0, 2 KOs) returns to the ring.
