Douglas, Odom Headline ShoBox Card March 13!

ESPN.com's Dan Rafael is reporting that Showtime will have a ShoBox card on Friday, March 13 that will feature two Beltway Boxers.  No official word yet on where the card will take place, although Boxrec.com is saying that the card will be at the Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma, WA.

Undefeated Burke, VA middleweight Antoine "Action" Douglas is slated to be in the main event against an opponent to be determined.  Douglas (16-0-1, 10 KO's) is coming off a six-round unanimous decision over Don Mouton on November 13 at the Fight Night charity event at the Washington Hilton Hotel in Washington, DC.

The card is also slated to feature a rematch between Bowie, MD super middleweight "The King's Son" Jerry Odom and undefeated Andrew "Hurricane" Hernandez of Phoenix, AZ.  The two met on January 9 at the Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City.  Odom (12-1, 11 KO's) was dominating the bout and knocked Hernandez (8-0-1, one KO) down in the fourth round. However, Odom continued to hit Hernandez after Hernandez was down and lost the bout via disqualification.
