After taking a winter break from the monthly boxing bouts at the Plex I decided to crank it up again and see who they had in the lineup. The night went a lot smoother than some previous matches I photographed and overall I was impressed by the range of fighters that showed up. Even more importantly, except for one duo, they actually took and passed their health screening.
Next month will be the last night Jim Kelly Productions holds boxing at the Plex. They are moving on to the Ice Palace and will continue to be the only local showcase for regional boxing.
Here are photos and results from the night:
The night began with a series of exhibition fights from the younger set who train at School of Hard Knox in Summerville. Pictured here is the daughter of the owner, Raven Llewellen, 11, taking on Justin Daniel, 9.
With this punch, Robert Dunton sent Joey Montgomery to the mat. Dunton went on to win by TKO.
Justin Costner tags David Sikes.
Sikes answers.
David Sikes takes the TKO.
Matt Waldrup smacks Will Davis and got a 3rd round TKO.
This heart stopping punch took Alfred Mouzon to the mat with a quickness. Fernando Guerrero won by TKO.
Staff Sgt. “Fists of Fury” Dennis came out strong.
But Jaywon Woods was ready. Woods won by unanimous decision.
