Tavon wasn't on USA Boxing's list. Was he a late addition?
ReplyDeleteI saw that too, Gary. All applications had to be in by July 21st. (not postmarked, but received).
ReplyDeleteIt would seem they didn't receive his paperwork in time.
tavon sol has pulled out,he is extremely scared of nick kishner
ReplyDeleteActually, Sol and Kisner would have been in different weight categories, so they never would have faced each other.
ReplyDeleteKisner is at 201 while SoL would have been in the 201+ division.
