Tadeo is coming off a victory at Battle at the Boat 105 on March 26 when he defeated a game Chad McKinney by unanimous decision.
It was Tadeo’s third career win at the Emerald Queen venue. He on his professional debut locally on March 31, 2012 and defeated Cameron Sevilla-Rivera at Battle at the Boat 103 on Nov. 7, 2015.
“Isaac continues to make his climb towards main event status,” promoter Brian Halquist said. “He’s a very gifted boxer who always brings major excitement to the ring. He will put on a show for the crowd, that’s for sure.”
Tadeo’s opponent looked razor sharp in his last outing as well. Turner (4-5-0, three KOs) fought at Battle at the Boat 105, defeating former amateur national champion Andre Keys by first-round knockout.
