This alone will add 'flava" to this exciting event!

Always a favorite, martial arts world champion Anthony Atkins (Right) will be there as he redefines gravity with ease through his performance! One word describes Anthony...Awesome! Others from the camp will be performing but are not yet confirmed. Don't forget the girls! A.K. has hired the online modeling company Ready2model.com to serve as ring girls for the night's bouts. The company is becoming well known for such services and has worked with greats such as Sugar Ray Leonard Promotions.
