- BATB is "The place to go if you want to know about any upcoming show or results, from amateur to the pros, in Virginia, Maryland and the District." -- Thom Loverro, The Washington Times. I've covered the Boxing scene in the Washington, DC/Baltimore area for 36 years. I was inducted into the Washington, DC Boxing Hall of Fame in November, 2009. I am also a feature writer for Fightnews.com. I was the play-by-play announcer on the TV series "Boxing Spotlight" which highlighted pro boxing along the Beltway. I have also appeared on numerous radio stations across the country talking about the sport. You can hear my audio commentaries, interviews and play-by-play calls by downloading the free Boxing Along The Beltway Podcast Network on Spreaker.com, IHeartradio.com, Stitcher.com,Tunein.com, Podcast Addict, Google Podcasts and Spotify! I'm also proud to say that I am in my 26th year serving as the public address announcer for Coppin State University Eagles Men's and Women's Basketball! I also cover boxing and the Washington pro football team for the Washington Informer Newspaper!

All the bouts seem to be won by maryland or DC as usual. The whole fucking thing is rigged like it has always been.Boxing especially in the metro area is and will always be corrupt. Trainers and fighters give their time and money to this sport only to have their dreams crushed be some special interest bastards
sitting at ringside keeping score.
You unjust people will get what is coming to you when you8 least expect it.
what happend that made you so upset? who got robbed?
Willie Jones
Become a referee and judge if you think you can do better. DC boxers did good. VA/NC boxers weren't up to the task.
Thats what's said every year by you assholes from potomac Valley.
Thats really easy to say when the officials are stacked against the fighters that are not in Potomac Valley.There are those who say that Virginia had officials there
working the show as well.You will find that those officials from virginia are never in a position to make the real diffrence in the fight.Any fights that were to be competative fights I can promise
Potomac Valley officials were in control.You make a comment to become a referee or judge if you can do better.What a damn comment.
If you were a ref or judge you wouldn't be allowed to work any fight that you could make a diffrence in.
Their was only one bad decision and that was in 200lb division, most of the va., nc. boxers were almost stopped. Willie fought a good fight, it was very close. Me personally thought it could have went either way. That was not a robbery.
I'm from South Atlantic and a coach. There is not much love between PVA and South Atlantic. SAA fighters won decisions in the DC finals. I tell my boxer to win big, don't let it be close.
I watched the Russel-Jones fight and I didn't care who won but I thought Russel won. He was more busy. It was close and I can see either trainer/fighter saying they won. Thats boxing. You will win close ones and lose close ones. The trick is to not let it be close.
I left after that fight so I can't say nothing about the other decisions but for what I saw, the decisions were fair.
