\"\"<\/a>The opponents have been announced for the co-main events on the September 27 \u201cRumble on the River\u201d at OKC Downtown Airpark in Oklahoma City, presented by Ivaylo Gotzev and his Epic Sports and Entertainment.<\/p>\n

In the night\u2019s eight-round heavyweight \u201cbombs away\u201d co-main event, hard-hitting former WBC Champion Samuel Peter (34-5, 27 KOs) will return for the first time in three years to face former ECHL hockey enforcer turned heavyweight KO artist Ron \u201cThe Iceman\u201d Aubrey (12-3, 12 KOs) from Oklahoma City. Having been on the world stage for most of his career, the 34-year-old Peter will have the edge in experience, but Aubrey will have his army of fans in his corner, cheering the powerful strongman onto pull the huge upset. Someone is surely going home sore and disappointed in this war of big men.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am happy to be back in boxing,\u201d said Samuel Peter. \u201cI will dedicate myself to winning the heavyweight championship once again. I\u2019m ready to knock out anyone who stands in my way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Aubrey says he has a surprise waiting for Peter. \u201cHe\u2019s got more experience,\u201d admitted Aubrey, \u201cbut I\u2019ve been in hundreds of brawls in my lifetime. I\u2019m not intimidated by him. He\u2019s the better boxer, but I\u2019m the better brawler and that\u2019s what kind of fight it\u2019s going to be. I\u2019ve already got 12 knockouts in the ring and Samuel Peter is going to be my lucky number 13.\u201d<\/p>\n

And in the eight-round, middleweight co-main event, former WBA\/WBC welterweight and WBC light middleweight champion Ricardo \u201cEl Matador\u201d Mayorga (29-8-1, 23 KOs) will face 33-fight veteran and ex-US Marine Allen \u201cFunky Cole\u201d Medina of Denver, Colorado. It will be Mayorga\u2019s first fight since his brave stand against Miguel Cotto in March of 2011. He has tried his hand at MMA and taken considerable time off, so it remains to be seen if \u201cEl Matador\u201d can still throw the bombs like he once did against some of boxing\u2019s biggest names.<\/p>\n

Headlining the undercard, Mexico\u2019s former IBF light middleweight champion \u201cYory Boy\u201d Campas (102-17-3, 79 KO\u2019s) will be gunning for the 103rd victory of his amazing career against 33-fight veteran Julio Cesar Lanzas of Colorado Springs, Colorado, in an eight-round middleweight match-up.<\/p>\n

The \u201cRumble on the River\u201d undercard features several prominent local names in surprisingly competitive bouts. An announcement will follow shortly.<\/p>\n
