RBA Promotions will be hosting a boxing card on Saturday, October 6 at the Smith Gymnasium of the campus of the Fort Myer/Henderson Hall Joint Military Base in Arlington, VA. Here are some of the bouts scheduled.
Headlining the card will be undefeated Upper Marlboro, MD heavyweight Duane Mobley in a six-round rematch against Norfolk, VA's Dennis Benson. Mobley (5-0, four KO's) is coming off a second-round knockout of Dave Fleming on September 22 in Millersville, MD. The win was Mobley's fourth straight knockout win. Mobley defeated Benson in his pro debut via four-round unanimous decision on February 11 in Fairfax, VA. Benson (1-3, one KO) will be trying to break a three-bout losing streak.
In another heavyweight contest, Newport News, VA's Jerry "Slug" Forrest will take on Capitol Heights, MD heavyweight Wayne "Hammerhead" Hampton in a four-round contest. Forrest, made a successful pro debut in his last outing with a first-round TKO over Keon Graham on August 4 in Washington, DC. Hampton (5-6, three KO's) has fought sporadically over the last three years, competing just once since 2009. That last contest saw Hampton lose by third-round TKO to Patrick Ferrell on August 18 in Atlantic City, NJ.
Undefeated White Plains, MD lightweight Terron "The Kid" Grant faces Stephan Alexander of Norfolk in a four-round contest. Grant (3-0, two KO's) scored a first-round knockout over Devirous Sanders on August 4 in DC. The win was Grant's second straight first-round knockout victory. Alexander (4-4, four KO's) has lost two straight and four of his last five.
DC light heavweight Greg Newby will be in a four-round contest against Jess Noriega of Lynchburg, VA. Newby (1-0, one KO) won his pro debut on August 25 in DC with a first-round knockout over Gavin Hume. Two of the last three losses for Noriega (0-3) have come to light-heavyweight prospects Thomas Williams, Jr. and Immanuwel Aleem by first-round knockout.
Another bout sees Temple Hills, MD cruiserweight Zakki Scott take on DC's Kareem Wilson in a four-round bout. Scott (2-0, one KO) last fought on March 10 in DC and won a four-round unanimous decision over Andre Ward. Wilson (0-6) has been disqualified in four of his six bouts.

How do you get DQ'd in the first round? TWICE!? I would never let my fighter fight someone like that. I'd be too concerned of this guy throwing elbows and headbutting.
Hey Question is it true there is a card scheduled for Nov.3 in DC at the Convention Center? If so do you know who is promoting it, and which fighters may be scheduled for this card? Hoping to see Alexander "The Great" Johnson back in action before the year is out.
This is a Keystone Boxing card and slated to be on the card as of now are Dusty Harrison, Venroy July, Kevin Rivers, Jarrett Hurd, Harold Parker and Dillon Hayman.
ONeill Bell was fighting with RBA promotions. Is ONeill still in the DC area? Will he be on hand or at ringside at the Henderson Hall fights on october 6th? He fought there last year.
who is dylan hayman
Dillon "The Stalker" Hayman is a welterweight from Frederick, MD who made his pro debut on the May 12 Keystone card in DC. He's 1-0, one KO.

I am in Baltimore. Is this card worth the drive? I went to the Babiegirl card at that hotel a few months ago. Are all these fights gonna be foregone conclusions or do you foresee some good scraps. I don't want to waste gas.
Gary, Do you know how much it costs to get in the fight tonight?
