Joppy, Cummings Rematch March 12 at Patriot Center!

Former three-time WBA Middleweight champion William Joppy and Maryland State Super Middleweight titleholder Cory "Black Ice" Cummings will battle in a 10-round rematch on Saturday, March 12 at the George Mason University Patriot Center in Fairfax, VA.

The two men met on November 6 at the Patriot Center and fought to a spirited 10-round majority draw. Joppy got the nod on one of the scorecards, 96-94, while the other two judges saw an even contest at 95-95.

Cummings (17-4-1, 13 KO's) has not fought since the November contest but Joppy (39-7-2, 30 KO's) is coming off a six-round KO loss to Beibut Shumenov for the WBA Light Heavyweight title on January 8 in Kazakhstan.
