Congratulations to event organizer Tamara McKinney and matchmaker Julius "Juice" Gatling for a great show that raised money to fight against breast cancer. It was an honor to serve as the ring announcer for this event.
what a geat nite of boxing. i loved the kids jumping for joy after winning. but its heart breaking wathing when the little guys lose. how about the smile on malcom lowerys face after he won. i will post pictures this week on MDlocalsports.org. also have good pictures of brian holland hitting mits with team mate-so cute. crowd seemed to really be into the greg outlaw vs larwerence singh fight but soon realized that larwerence singh was completely outclassed by greg outlaw. looked like larwerence sing wanted to wrestle instead of box. by the way, his uncle/trainer is disgusting and has a very filthy mouth. seems to hate everyone. complete opposite from branden patterson's crew. they seemed to be so well mannered and polite. they had no ill feelings toward anyone whatsoever.
ReplyDeletegreat pics i have of the little cutie keshawn davis. he is going to be a ladies man for sure.see you guys on the 1st of nov. keep up the good work.
That is not Singh's uncle or trainer; that is his father. He has been acting that way forever.
ReplyDeleteHe has wrestled at every gym in Maryland and Washington DC. He will be heading towards Virginia 9in the near future.
they are from Pakastan
ReplyDeletegross!
ReplyDeleteKashif El-Amin stole the show once again!!! He cannot be beat by anyone from 112 thru 132 at any age.
ReplyDeleteNot Hardly> Gregory Outlaw had more fans and made his opponet look silly. Biggest cheers too$$$
ReplyDeleteGREAT NIGHT OF BOXING. I EVEN THOUGHT THE FAT DUDE FROM PAKASTAN WAS FUNNY. HE MADE MY ENTIRE CREW FALL OUT LAUGHING. I LIKE HIM FOR REAL.
ReplyDeleteu might like him him, but the officials are all volunteer and we need to respect them all. they do not get paid for such harsh language. he was very close to being escorted off the premises.
ReplyDeletethey aren't from Pakistan - they are Guyanese. I'm not affiliated with them, but don't talk about what you don't know. I know this is the internet, but come on.
ReplyDeleteGreat night of boxing, really. Greg Outlaw did a great job. I also impressed by the little guys from Norfolk. Coach Peeks (I think that's her name) has them boxing really well. The ones that lost either lost close ones or were giving up age. Keep up the good work fellas.
ReplyDeleteI think one of the most exciting bouts was Carlton Gray vs. Carpenter from Norfolk. Good action and the crowd got into it.
Willie Nelson and Chris Alexander also looked good.
My bad, I work with a few guys from Pakastan and I thought he was from there too. Sorry-I meant no harm at all.
ReplyDeleteGreat Show! Cute Kids and tuff ones also. How about the little kid holding up his older team-mates championship belt in the corner before he fought. I thought that was great, its good he won though.
ReplyDeleteI actually thought he lost (homes)
ReplyDeleteTeam Norfolk represented very well.
never complained about nothing.
Hope you guys finally got your books before you exited.
Twin - no biggie.
ReplyDeleteI thought that Suga Wayne lost too. Good bout, but I thought the Norfolk kid outboxed him.
Team Norfolk brought an enthusiastic crowd for support. It was a really energetic crowd overall.
The boxer is his son and he go crazy every time the kid loses which is 95% of the time. I watched the match and Outlaw cleary outclassed Singh. The entire place new that Outlaw had won. Outlaw never bragged or anything, he actually went right to the other corner to shake hands.
ReplyDeletePure Class! Coach Singh, you need to settle down or perhaps have your sons take up another sport. I would suggest soccer. I think the younger one would do well.
Wrestling would be his thing. He tried it last night.
ReplyDeleteI swear I seen the kid win before at the Title Even in Tenn.
ReplyDeleteyou may have but he cannot beat any of these kids from DC, MD, VA
ReplyDeleteWell this is my comment. Even though i wasnt there i know Gregory has a lot of respect and is an proud man of God, with anioited hands that will always win, because he serverant of GOD!!!
ReplyDeletegreg could beat singh with his eyes closed
ReplyDeletelet's not forget that this is for the kids . some coaches and/or father choose to live their dreams though their kids. DMV we're better than this.
ReplyDeleteIs this organization affiliated with Kevin Batiste?
ReplyDeleteI am actually trying to find out the same answer...is this organization affiliated with Kevin Batiste or is there someone within this organization that knows Kevin Batiste?
