I said there have been some interesting matchups talked about for the October 7 card at the George Mason University Patriot Center. The co-feature should be a good one. DC super middleweight Purcell "Hard Rock" Miller will battle former world title contender Larry "The Laser" Marks of New Castle, DE.
Miller (22-4-1, 18 KO's) broke a three-bout winless streak with a second-round TKO over Ron Krull on July 1 at the ABC Sports Complex in Springfield, VA.
Marks (28-8, 16 KO's) is a world-class veteran who challenged Andrew "Six Heads" Lewis for the WBA Welterweight title in 2001. He lost a unanimous decision. Marks has fought the likes of Charles "The Natural" Murray, Cory Spinks, Michael Covington and Rudy Lovato throughout his career.
Marks is no stranger to this area, having battled along the Beltway three times. Most recently, Marks won an eight-round unanimous decision over Ron Boddie on June 16, 2005 at Michael's Eighth Avenue in Glen Burnie.
From the little I know about boxing, this seems like it could be a good bout-wasn't Miller the one at the Springfield show who had an actual band doing his entrance music? That was cool.
ReplyDeleteThis will be a real good matchup. Yes ACW, that was Miller. This could be the bout of the night!
