Here's an interesting situation. Former world champions William Joppy and DeMarcus "Chop Chop" Corley were involved in bouts in Charleston, South Carolina on July 28.
According to my new Fightnews colleague, Trey Horres (welcome aboard!), both Joppy and Corley were successful against substandard competition. Joppy defeated Rashan Abdul Blackburn by TKO in the third round (Blackburn came in with a record of 8-35) while Corley won an eight round unanimous decision over Kevin Carter (9-45-1).
Where did these bouts come from? Talking about desiring to stay busy!
There has been some talk about former NABF Welter and Junior Middleweight champ Teddy Reid challenging Joppy in the near future. The talk is coming from Reid's new manager, Felix Dialosio. We'll see what happens with that.
But right now, both Joppy and Corley seem to be off the radar!
That would be Joppy vs. Reid II. They have already gone at it without gloves after an intense sparring session at Round One.
ReplyDeleteThat is true. If they go again, they will get paid for it this time!
