Valley boxer prepares for final professional fight

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (WKBN) – Valley native Danny 'Feel Good Hollywood' Rosenberger will headline his final professional boxing card on Fiesta Fight Night at the Metroplex Expo Center on Saturday, May 3. Watch above for an extended interview with the Youngstown boxer. Rosenberger headlines a card with eight boxing matches featuring fighters from Ohio and throughout the country. The card will also feature two international fighters, one from England and from Greece. Rosenberger's opponent is Jack Castle from London, England, with a fight record of (6-3-0). Castle is also a UK Olympic Qualifier and has an amateur record of (65-5). The main card will be eight rounds at 160 lbs. Rosenberger is promoting the bouts himself through his company, Danny Rosenberger Promotions. 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. 'The show we had last year, absolute sellout, it was phenomenal, atmosphere was great,' said Rosenberger. 'The crowd was great, Youngstown people and the fans were awesome as well, had to bring it back from my last fight.' The Valley boxer said this will be his last fight because of the time commitment. 'After discussion with my wife and everything, we have a new baby and then with my business, it's hard to do both full time,' said Rosenberger. Rosenberger said he won't be completely away from the sport as he has his own fight promotions business and plans to manage Valley boxers. 'It's going to be tough saying goodbye, but I'm glad my last one can be here at home in front of all my fans,' said Rosenberger. 'All the support I've had in the past few years, it's going to be a good goodbye.' Rosenberger currently has 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. The event will showcase Mexican heritage and will be a celebration of Cinco De Mayo. Doors open at 4 p.m. and the first fight starts at 5 p.m. General admission is $40 and ringside is $100. Tickets can be purchased at the door or contact Rosenberger directly on his social media. Rosenberger's gym, Golden String Boxing, will also be hosting an amateur boxing event named The Golden Night of Boxing, Saturday, April 26. The amateur card features 12 bouts at The Richard W. and Eugenia C. Atkinson Recreation Center. Doors open at 3 p.m. and tickets are $20 at the door. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
