Schedule Addition: 'Pit Bull' White on ESPN2 August 11!

I just received word that Smithsburg, MD lightweight Dean "Pit Bull" White will also be a part of the busy August I talked about earlier. White will be facing Monty Meza Clay on Friday, August 11 on ESPN2 from Chester, WVA.

Since those two losses to Mike Ricasa and Oronde Dawley in late 2005, White (13-4-1, six KO's) has been on a bit of a roll as he is unbeaten in his last three contests. White won a six-round split decision over Marty Robbins on January 20 in Pikesville then won an eight-round unanimous decision in the rematch against Ricasa on February 23 in Woodlawn.

White then held the highly-talented Nick Casal to an eight-round draw on June 3 in Las Vegas.

Clay, who hails from Rankin, PA, comes into the contest with a record of 20-1, 13 KO's. Clay suffered his first loss in his last contest on May 12 as he was stopped in the 11th round by Edner Cherry in a bout for the NABA Lightweight title.
