maryland has new blood in the pro ranks, but we havent seen much of manny taylor. we wanna see more of this kid. hey gary, besides alex guerrero, any more amateurs turning pro this year, or by 2010? any predictions?
Gary,
Fightnews accidentally posted the wrong round originally. I called in the correct stoppage. When i saw it was incorrect, i called our main editor in Florida to correct it.
Thanks again for all of your coverage of boxing along the Beltway.
