ReplyDeleteIs the fight card still on for Saturday on that Airforce base?
ReplyDeleteDon't know. I talked to the promoter over the weekend and he was having issues with Henderson Hall personnel. The card may not happen. I'll keep you posted.
ReplyDeleteI thought so. When I talked to him the other day, he had that shifty eye. Thanks G man....
ReplyDeleteThe show has been canceled.
ReplyDeleteTake it to the bank.
