Snow Wins Decision;Jeter Scores Knockout in DC!

Capitol Heights, MD super featherweight Thomas "KO" Snow won a six-round unanimous decision over Jason Rorie of Wilson, NC in front of a packed house at DC Star Nightclub in DC.

Unlike their first matchup that Snow won in November by using more movement, Snow fought a phone booth bout throughout with the determined Rorie. The close quarters allowed for headbutts to take place and one Rorie headbutt caused a gash over Snow's left eye. Referee Dr. Joseph Cooper took two points away from Rorie for headbutts and holding. Both men landed solid punches throughout but more came from Snow. Judges Steve Rados and Lloyd Scaife scored the bout 60-52 while judge Tammye Jenkins saw the bout 58-54.

Snow is now 13-1, eight KO's while Rorie falls to 6-9, three KO's.

Columbia, MD middleweight Tony "Mo Better" Jeter scored a second-round KO over Adrian Redmond of Turnersburg, NC. Jeter used his power punches early in the bout before sending a right hand that landed on Redmond's temple and put him down for the count. The knockout is Jeter's fourth in his last five bouts and raises his record to 10-2-1, nine KO's. Redmond is 4-8, three KO's.

Also on the card, Laurel, MD heavyweight "The Big Ticket" Dwayne McRae scored a first round TKO over Octavius Davis of Wilson, NC. McRae stopped Davis at 2:15 of the round overwhelming him throughout. McRae is now 9-2, five KO's while Davis is 2-8-1, one KO.

Scott "Cujo" Sigmon of Bedford, VA stopped John "The Baptist" Terry of Petersburg, VA at 1:03 of the third round. Sigmon dropped Terry twice before the bout was stopped. Sigmon is now 12-2, five KO's while Terry is 3-18-5, one KO.

Forestville, MD junior middleweight Alantez "Tez" Fox knocked out Charles "Ray of Light" White of Wilson at 1:08 of the first round. A huge right hand to the head stopped White in his tracks. Fox is 3-0, two KO's while White was making his pro debut.

Debuting DC heavyweight Mario Flores was successful in his first pro bout, stopping the returning Richard McCombs at 2:34 of the first round. Flores landed a solid left hook that sent McCombs reeling backwards into the ropes and down to the canvas. Moments later, Flores used a barrage of punches to force referee Cooper to stop the contest. McCombs is now 1-3-1.

In the opening contest, Arnold, MD heavyweight Ron "Heavy Duty" Gamble made a successful debut with a second-round TKO over Wilson's Vashaun Tomlin. Both boxers went down in the first round, but Gamble came back strong and overpowered the 295-pound Tomlin in the second, dropping him with a right hand inside. Tomlin could not beat referee Malik Waleed's 10-count and the bout was stopped at 1:59 of the second. Tomlin is now 0-3.

The card was the debut promotion for Pay Day Promotions, headed by Abe Peay. The matchmaker was Brian Dillon.
