Two undefeated DC prospects will participate in a boxing card on December 10 at Fitzgeralds Casino in Tunica, MS.
Junior welterweight Lamont Peterson (14-0, six KO's) will take on Johnny "Live Wire" Walker of Fort Lauderdale, FL (18-18, 12 KO's). Peterson is coming off an eight-round unanimous decision over Robert Frankel on September 2nd in Little Rock, AR. Peterson has gone the distance in his last three bouts.
Walker is trying to break a 15-bout losing streak which includes defeats at the hands of such noted boxers as former world champion DeMarcus "Chop Chop" Corley, Juan Manuel Marquez, Americo Santos and Nate Campbell.
Walker is also seeking a win over a Peterson. Walker lost a six-round unanimous decision over Lamont's brother Anthony on August 20 in Biloxi, MS.
Also on this card, lightweight Ty Barnett (5-0, four KO's) will take on undefeated Deon Nash of Lutcher, LA (3-0) in a six-round lightweight contest.
In his last bout, Barnett scored a first round KO over Theodore Anderson on September 10 in Tunica. Barnett has only fought once in DC and that was on the Kevin McBride-Mike Tyson card on June 11 at MCI Center. Barnett won by four-round unanimous decision over Michael Salyers on that card, the only time Barnett has gone the distance.
Nash won his last contest by four-round unanimous decision over Mikel Williams on June 11 in Bossier City, LA.
When I get results on this card, I will certainly post.
