Moreno-Haselrig Gets ‘Primetime’ Nod

By May 16, 2008
New Jersey knockout artist Carlos Moreno has been cleared to face former New York Jets offensive guard and NCAA wrestling champion Carlton Haselrig in a heavyweight undercard bout at EliteXC's "Primetime" on May 31 at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J.

The 42-year-old Haselrig was left without a dance partner two days ago, after Joe McCall dropped from the card due to a family emergency.

Moreno has won two of his last three tilts with his fists, but dropped his last bout to Kevin Jordan (Pictures) via strikes at Battle Cage Xtreme 3 on October 20 in Atlantic City, N.J.

Moreno, 30, recently appeared on two episodes of BET's "The Iron Ring" before he was eliminated from competition. The heavy-handed Moreno will face Haselrig in his second professional contest.
