Rahman Keeps WBC Heavyweight Title With Draw!

Baltimore's Hasim "The Rock" Rahman held on to his WBC heavyweight title with a 12-round majority draw against James Toney at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City.

I will have some thoughts on this decision later in the day.

On the undercard, Silver Spring, MD heavyweight Tony "The Tiger" Thompson scored a fourth-round TKO over Maurice Wheeler. The bout was stopped at 2:10 of the fourth round. Thompson is now 27-1, 17 KO's and has now won 23 straight bouts.

Also, DC light heavyweight Edward Andre Hempfield lost a four-round majority decision over undefeated Chuck Mussachio. Hempfield now falls to 3-3.

Don't know if you noticed but Derek Sierra fought Bobby Rooney to a draw on this card as well.
