'Spring Spectacular' News and Notes!

There are reports that the May 25 DC card may feature a tremendous matchup as undefeated Lamont Peterson will defend his WBC US Junior Welterweight championship against "The Pride of Portsmouth" Dorin Spivey.

The scheduled 12-round bout is not officially a done deal, but I'm being told that both men have agreed to the bout and it is a matter of dotting some I's and crossing some T's.

If and when this bout becomes official, you will be the first to know.

There is also a change in the "Spring Spectacular" schedule. The Keystone Boxing card slated for Friday, May 4 at Rosecroft Raceway has been postponed until Friday, May 18 at the same location.

That means there will be a serious stretch of cards in May with bouts on May 11, 12, 18, 25 and 31. Five cards in 20 days in May!

  5. That's a figure of speech dude. It means Spivey is never going to get a decision in DC.

  6. I guess we'll see. Should be a great fight, a proven veteran against a young, talented, albeit untested, lion. Cross roads fight at its' best!

  10. Anthony Peterson and Dean White was indeed a possibility.

    However, White's contract for the May 12 Patriot Center show is iron-clad at the moment, and, as of now, the bout between White and Damian Fuller is still on.
