Dyer Wins Decision In Erie; Justin Hurd Off Brother's Card In Brooklyn!

Couple of notes to pass along.  Baltimore, MD lightweight Jahmal Dyer won a four-round unanimous decision over Roger "Monster" Blankenship of on October 7 at the Bayfront Convention Center in Erie, PA.  According to reports, Dyer used a lot of body shots in the last three round to gain the victory by scores of 40-36 and 39-37 (twice).  Dyer is now 4-0, two KO's while Blankenship is 1-2.

This week, we learned that Accokeek, MD super welterweight "Slick" Justin Hurd will not appear on the Saturday, October 14th card at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY.  Apparently, Hurd (3-0, two KO's) has an illness and has not been able to train.  This is the card that features Hurd's brother, IBF Super Welterweight champion "Swift" Jarrett Hurd making the first defense of his title against former world champion Austin Trout as part of a 154-pound tripleheader.
