Due to technical difficulties, I am unable to put together a post-fight wrap-up for this card. I will be back later today with a full recap of the card and some interesting Beltway news.

  1. Snow was unable to get a fight. Most are scared to box Snow, he is undefeated and he is good.

  2. All of "Duke's" wins have been first round KOs, haven't they? I remember seeing him fight @ the Lee High School show; dude's incredibly POWERFUL (or his opponents have just been weak, I don't know, but I wouldn't want to get hit by one of Duke's punches, that's for sure!).

  6. Even though it was an exhibition, I thought the bout between Raul Rivera and Carlos Battle was a good one. When will we see either of these guys again

  7. What's up with the Old School Boxing coaches/youngins? They are being taught how corrupt boxing can be at a young age. What's up with that?

    Some of the youngins looked good but I know at least two of them lost their fights.
