DEVELOPING NEWS: Major Shakeup Possible for December 9 Patriot Center Show!

We have a developing story that, if official, will dramatically change the lineup for the December 9 show at the George Mason University Patriot Center. Here's what I know:

It looks like the co-feature bout that was originally scheduled to be an eight-rounder between Dean "Pit Bull" White and Dorin Spivey will be changed. I don't think fans of White will be happy with this.

If this becomes official, White will be moved out of the bout with Spivey and replaced by former three-time world champion Mark "Too Sharp" Johnson.

I have talked with Major League Boxing's promoter Joe Hensley and he confirmed the possible switch and it is contingent on both men signing the contracts. He also said that White will still have a prominent place on this card.


I have also been in contact with Mark Johnson and he called this bout with Spivey,"a done deal."

I must tell you that this all happened between five and six pm ET. (please note the time of this post). There is more to this story and the reasons behind it. As soon as the official word comes down on this, I will do an audio report/commentary on this situation.
