‘Last dance': Valley boxer ready for final career bout
NILES, Ohio (WKBN) – Valley boxer Danny 'Feel Good Hollywood Rosenberger' made weight for his final professional career bout at the Stoneyard Grill & Tavern in Niles on Friday afternoon. Watch above for an extended interview with the Youngstown boxer and his trainer. Rosenberger weighed-in at 163.5 lbs. for his final career fight. The event is named Fiesta Fight Night to celebrate Mexican Heritage at the Metroplex Expo Center. 'It's going to be bittersweet and it's going to be exciting,' said Rosenberger. 'It's going to be emotional, I really don't know.' The Youngstown boxer headlines a card with multiple fights featuring fighters locally and across the country. 'I just want my legacy to be known as a great fighter in Youngstown who loves the people, loves the fans as one,' said Rosenberger. 'Everybody, remember what type of shows we put on.' Rosenberger's original opponent dropped out of the fight last minute. He will now be facing Joe Thompson from Kentucky, who has a record of (5-8). Tom Cordell has been Rosenberger's trainer for 10 years and said the fight will be emotional. 'He's like a son to me, I love him like one of my own kids,' said Cordell. 'He's just a great person, great family, great kid.' Rosenberger is promoting the bouts himself through his company, Danny Rosenberger Promotions. 'I'm really excited to bring boxing back to our area, it's been dead for a few years,' said Rosenberger. 'Now a new thing has started and I hope to continue the journey through Youngstown.' The Niles native expects it to be a sellout show with over 1,200 people. This is Rosenberger's second time hosting an event at the Metroplex. 'Say thank you for the support, the career I had, the ups and downs,' said Rosenberger. I wouldn't do it unless for them. For tomorrow, I expect a full sellout and they'll all be there. Rosenberger said this will be his last fight because of the time commitment with owning his own company and his family. Rosenberger comes into this fight with a record of (20-10-4) with 10 KO's. He was on a 13-fight win streak until a loss to Jose Benavidez Jr. in Las Vegas in February.
