"I can't wait to make my hometown debut in front of my family and friends who won't have to travel to see this one," said Thompson.   "The place is going to be packed with our fans whom have been waiting to see us fight at home."

"Ever since my brother and I turned pro we have wanted to fight at home," said Anthony Peterson. "With both of our careers on the brink of national success and world championships, the hometown crowd and fighting on national television brings us one step further to realizing our dreams."
