Chad Dawson, Rivera, Clay-Bey in Hartford November 4

Posted on | October 25, 2011 | No Comments

FYI: Three of my former (Lawrence and Jose) and current (Chad) boxers, former world champions “Bad” Chad Dawson and Jose Antonio Rivera, along with 1996 U.S. Olympic team captain and former heavyweight contender Lawrence Clay-Bey, will appear as special guests at the BIG U.S. Marine vs Connecticut Amateur Boxing Show I am organizing for November 4 at The Hartford Club (46 Prospect Street, Hartford, Conn.).

All three boxers will be on hand to hand out trophies, sign autographs, take photos, etc. The special 8 bout card will feature the U.S. Marine team boxers based out of Camp Lejune, North Carolina against a team I am putting together from the area. As of today the home team boxers are based out of Meriden, East Hartford, Worcester and Springfield. The tentative bout sheet is listed below.
