Changes to June 22 Card at Duburns Arena!

There are wholesale changes to this Friday's Baltimore Boxing card at DuBurns Arena in Baltimore.

Undefeated Dundalk, MD heavyweight "The American Dream" Mike Dietrich (8-0, three KO's) will venture into a scheduled six-round bout for the first time in his pro career. Dietrich's opponent is now scheduled to be Darryl Holley of Brigatine, NJ. Holley (5-4, one KO) started his career with five straight victories but has now lost four in a row.

The opponent has also changed for undefeated Severn, MD middleweight Jessie "The Beast" Nicklow and this one could be just as tough. Instead of facing Richard "Tiger" Lee Hall, Nicklow (11-0-1, five KO's) is now scheduled to face Miami, FL's David Toribio (13-9, seven KO's.) Toribio has lost his last three bouts, but his last victory came on September 28, 2006 at Michael's Eighth Avenue in Glen Burnie when he won an eight-round majority decision over previously undefeated Ishmail "The Arsenal" Arvin.

Just added to the card is undefeated Baltimore welterweight Tim Coleman (10-0, two KO's). Coleman will be in a six-round contest against Carlos Pena of Lowell, MA (4-7, three KO's). Pena has won three of his last five. Pena was also on the September 28 show in Glen Burnie and lost a six-round unanimous decision to Jose Angel Rodriguez.

The opponent for Baltimore super middleweight Henry "Hurricane" Mayes (5-3, four KO's) has changed. It looks like Philadelphia's Jacob Rodriguez will face Mayes in a four-round contest. Rodriguez (8-16, six KO's) has won his last two bouts. Rodriguez is 2-3 when competing along the Beltway. In his last bout here back in 2005, he lost to Mike "The Persecutor" Paschall via second-round TKO at Martin's West in Woodlawn.

"Diamond" Matt Hill of Reisterstown, MD will still take on Jerome Elders of Indianapolis and Steve Garrett will still be on the card.

Do you have the weights from last night?

Nicklow is a Beast, why does every1 hate on Baltimore fighters?
I remember seeing the Greek lay people out threw out the amatures, and he will do the same in the pro's. I go to all Jake Smith's show's so I always watch the Baltimore fighters, and his knockout back in, I think March, was the most devastating KO i ever saw.

Nicklow is the hotest prospect coming up, he is young raw talent.

I am glad Mike Dietrich is down to cruiserweight, his power in that division will be awesome.

Gladd to see Matt Hill again, Gary the record is not good, but I tell you the crowd Loves him.
