'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!

How are you going to have to get a knock out to get a split dec?

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

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!

Lamont is a beast he's going to beat the brakes of Dorin.

Who even mentioned that fight as a possibility?

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.
