(Tampa, Florida – Monday, April 21, 2008) –

“Everyone was mentioned as Calzaghe’s potential next opponent but ME – the true light heavy weight champion. I am the REAL legend killer! I beat Roy Jones,Jr. not once, but twice. I have also beaten Glenn Johnson, Clinton Woods and many more top fighters in the light heavy weight division. I am the ONLY light heavy weight champion who currently holds two belts and on my way to unifying the belts this year. I will fight Calzaghe in the US, in the UK or wherever he wants to fight. Three fights, three titles, undisputed! ”

  • OUMA HITS BIG SCREEN

    The heart wrenching story of former world champion Kassim Ouma hits the big screen this weekend with the world premiere of “Kassim the Dream” at the prestigious Tribeca Film Festival co-founded by Robert De Niro in Lower Manhattan.

    In this inspiring tale of survival and determination, we see Kassim “The Dream” Ouma transformed from a Ugandan child soldier to a world champion boxer.

    Ouma was born in Uganda, kidnapped by the rebel army and trained to be a child soldier at the age of 6. When the rebels took over the government, Kassim became an army soldier who was forced to commit many horrific atrocities, making him both a victim and perpetrator. He soon discovered the army’s boxing team and realized the sport was his ticket to freedom. After 12 years of warfare, Kassim defected from Africa and arrived in the United States. Homeless and culture shocked, he quickly rose through the boxing ranks and became Junior Middleweight Champion of the World.

    Kassim, now age 29, seems to have obtained the American Dream with his jovial nature, fame and hip hop lifestyle. In the film, as Kassim trains for his next world title fight against Jermain Taylor in Little Rock Arkansas, keeping his demons out of the ring becomes increasingly difficult. His desires to reunite with family in Uganda intensify when Kassim’s only hope for a safe return is a military pardon from the president and government responsible for his abduction.

    Award winning producer/director Kief Davidson shot over 200 hours of footage over the last 3-years for the documentary feature film. Actor Forest Whitaker, who won an Academy Award for his portrayal of Ugandan dictator Idi Amin, is the Executive Producer of the Ouma film. The film will compete against 11 other films for the Best Documentary in the festival, a prize that went last year to “Taxi to the Dark Side,” which later went on to win the Academy Award.

    More information and a movie trailer are available at the Kassim the Dream.com website or the Tribeca Film Festival website.

  • PHILADELPHIA’S DANNY GARCIA

    Philadelphia’s rising star, Jr. welterweight Danny Garcia, improves to (5-0, 5 KO’s) as he dismantled Guadalupe Diaz at the 1:53 mark of round one on the undercard of Calzaghe vs Hopkins.

    Garcia whose known for his fast hands and powerful punch, hurt the Michoacan native early with a barrage of punches. Tony Weeks was forced to stop the beating after Diaz was on wobbly legs.

    “I really wanted to go some rounds in this fight, but if the opportunity arises I have to take him out. Diaz didn’t seem to durable so I applied a lot of pressure and landed some big shots. My focus is to get back in the gym and get ready for the next one. I’ve been working very hard and its paid off. I cant wait to get back in the ring.” ~ Danny Garcia

  • Frenkel to fight Phelps for IBF Youth Cruiserweight Title

    Alexander Frenkel will fight Cory Phelps for the vacant IBF youth cruiserweight title in Bayreuth on May 17. The 23-year-old German, who boasts a perfect record of 14 wins in as many fights (10 KOs), last stopped Arthur Williams in the fifth round of their meeting in Nurnberg (Feb. 16). Less than two years after making his professional debut, the gifted youngster is now eager to win his first title. And in order to do so, Frenkel has worked harder than ever before. “After the fight against Williams I just took one day off and then returned to practice straight away,” he said. “First we worked out in the Max-Schmeling-Gym and since last week we have been in a high-altitude training camp in Switzerland to shape up. I feel great. The mountains, the fresh air and the landscape give me a lot of energy.”

    Frenkel claimed he won´t take Phelps (12-3, 7 KOs) lightly. “I don´t yet know too much about him but I am nobody who underestimates his opponent,” he said. “The fight against him is very important for me. Even though it will be my first ten-rounder, I don´t think the fight will go the distance.”

    Larry Phelps, father and coach of the “Cobra”, believes his son got what it takes to win the vacant title. “Cory is motivated and hungry,” he said. “He trains very hard and learns very quickly. He is not only determined to make a good fight in Germany but wants to win the title and take it home to Kentucky.”

  • As announced this morning on the “Ballroom Boxing Report” on WJFK-AM in Baltimore, undefeated Pasadena, MD super middleweight “The Persecutor” Mike Paschall will battle former world title contender Larry “The Laser” Marks of Newark, DE on Thursday, May 29 in the main event of the next Ballroom Boxing card at Michael’s Eighth Avenue in Glen Burnie, MD.

    Paschall (16-0-1, four KO’s) is coming off a solid fourth-round TKO over Bruce Rumbolz on the last Ballroom Boxing show on April 3. Paschall has scored knockouts in his last two bouts. Marks (29-9-1, 16 KO’s) who unsuccessfully challenged Andrew “Six Heads” Lewis for the WBA Welterweight title in 2001, is the most accomplished boxer Paschall has faced. Marks has also fought the likes of former world champions Cory Spinks and Charles “The Natural” Murray as well as contenders Andrew Murray and Tokunbo Olajide. Marks also holds victories over Beltway Boxers Ed Griffin and Purcell Miller.

    There is a possibility that this will be a 10-round contest. If that holds up, that will be virgin territory for Paschall.

    Tickets are available by calling Ballroom Boxing at 410-766-7474.
