DC December 9 Card Taking Shape!

Some bouts have been put together for the Saturday, December 9 card at the Lincoln Theatre in DC, according to promoter Cassandra White.

We've talked about this card marking the return of Clarence "Untouchable" Vinson, however this card is also scheduled to feature the return of one of the members of the family many consider the "First Family of Beltway Boxing." Demetrius Davis makes his return to the ring after an eight-year absence due to legal problems.

Davis (17-11-4, seven KO's) will be fighting as a light heavyweight when he takes on William Gill of Toms River, NJ (5-12, four KO's). Davis fought the bulk of his career as a super middleweight and fought quality people like Eric Lucas, Bryant Brannon, Omar Sheika and Thomas Tate. Davis's biggest win came on April 28, 1998 when he won a 10-round unanimous decision over Joseph Kiwanuka in Philadelphia.

White and matchmaker Jack Crider are still looking for opponents for Vinson and for Thomas "KO" Snow, who recently won by first-round KO in a bout in North Carolina. Snow is now 7-0, five KO's.

Also scheduled to appear on this show are Beltway Boxers Reggie "The Mechanic" Holly and Horace "The Reason" Grant.

An interesting name on this card is Miami, FL light heavyweight Mike "The Pit Bull" Vallejo. This is interesting because Vallejo has only fought one time and that bout was a part of Fox Network's failed boxing reality show "The Next Great Champ" in July of 2004. Vallejo lost by four-round unanimous decision to the eventual overall winner, Otis Griffin.

Wow! This seems like a conflict with the Virginia card. I wish it was the following weekend instead.

Yes, it is a direct conflict with the VA card.

The following weekend would be too close to Christmas. Even if the DC show was in the afternoon, that would help because people (like me)could conceivably go to both shows.

I will be at the VA show because I will be doing the play-by-play for the video of the show.

The show in DC will flop because Cassandra has a hard head. I hope she is ready to take a big hit again. She has Vinson as the Main event an Thomas Snow.Demetruis Davis come on. I'm going to laugh she don't have the right people on the show who can draw. She has a matchmaker from Richmond how can he match some fights up in DC. We need boxing back in DC not play fighting

Casandra White is getting help from a local legend Juice Gatling. Im sure her show will be just fine.
She will be saving money because she will be the Ring Girl in the main event. She is built like a shit brick house. Have you ever seen her in those spandix short. You can see the beautiful curves all over her body. Good Luck Cassandra, I will be there to see you. Holla at ya later at Clancy's. Ill be there after 9.
Rodney will be with me again, he just got a new truck. Bye Sweety...
