Can 'Hard Work' Take Down A 'Lumberjack?' Find Out June 16 at Du Burns!

One of the feature bouts on the Saturday, June 16 Keystone Boxing card is set.  Undefeated Suitland, MD cruiserweight Venroy "Hard Work" July will take on Justin "The Lumberjack" Howes of Buckhannon, WVA in a six-round contest at Du Burns Arena in Baltimore, MD.

July (10-0-2, four KO's) last fought on February 25 and scored a second-round TKO over Zeferino Albino in Millersville, MD.  Howes (13-2, 11 KO's) broke a two-bout losing streak in his last outing when he stopped Dan Shull in the third round on January 28 in Clarksburg, WVA.  That was Howes's first bout in a year.

Three other bouts are signed for the card.  Baltimore, MD junior welterweight Kevin "The Scarecrow" Womack, Jr. (3-0, one KO) will face veteran Nalo Leal of Airway Heights, Washington (4-15-1) in a four-round encounter.  Womack won a four-round majority decision over Richard Andrews on February 11 in Fairfax, VA.  Leal will be trying to break a four-bout losing streak.

The two local debuting boxers also have opponents now.  Baltimore junior middleweight Jeremy Trussell will take on Marcus Bess of Columbia, SC (0-1) who made his pro debut against Harold Parker on May 12 in DC and was stopped in the third round.  Also, Baltimore bantamweight Brady "The Magician" Sensibaugh will start his pro debut against equally debuting Giovanni Vazquez, also from Columbia, SC.
