BATB has learned that a very exciting all-Beltway bout is slated for the Keystone Boxing card on Saturday, January 12 at Rosecroft Raceway in Fort Washington, MD. Undefeated Forestville, MD junior middleweight Alantez "Slyaza" Fox will battle "Relentless" Julius Kennedy in a six-round contest.
Fox (8-0-1, four KO's) is coming off a first round TKO over Jimmy LeBlanc on December 8 at the Washington Convention Center in DC. Kennedy (7-2-1, three KO's, one NC) hasn't fought since his no contest against Zain Shah on September 10, 2011 at the Patriot Center in Fairfax, VA, a bout that was originally a win for Shah before the decision was overturned.
This will be Fox's first bout against a fellow Beltway Boxer while Kennedy will be facing a local for the fifth time. Kennedy, however has yet to gain a victory against a Beltway Boxer, losing to Jason Champion and Scott Sigmon and drawing with Jessie Nicklow prior to his no contest against Shah.

Thats going to be a good fight.We will get to see how good Fox realy is. I hope the rest of the fights are of this caliber.
This will be a one sided affair. Alantez Fox will stop Kennedy by round 3.
BIG RESTECT TO TEZ FOR NOT FIGHTING DEAD MEN!!! KEPP IT UP CHAMP!!
An opponent with a winning record GTFO!
What venue in Ft Wash will this be held in Jan?
As the post says, the venue is Rosecroft Raceway.
Sorry, read too fast and missed that.
Fox is an excellent local fighter, as is Kennedy. It should be a great fight between two evenly skilled competitors, who are coming to win (not just collect a pay check). I can guarantee it will be a better fight than the Jimmy LaBlanc mismatch. Although LaBlanc was an experienced fighter, his only win in the past few years was to a chump. Fox needs to be fighting more Kennedy's and less LaBlanc's. He is skilled enough to handle it, and he shouldn't be given soft touches like some of the other fighters under Keystone.
Im glad he's not like Dusty 11&0 all BUMS thanks to the hand pick fights
