CARL
"IRON FIST" DAVIS IN CO-MAIN EVENT FRIDAY NIGHT IN CHICAGO
(MAY 6) Davis, 9-2 (8KO’s) is coming off a
devastating first round knockout of Nigerian Innocent Otukwu three
months ago in front of a stunned crowd at Cicero Stadium. The knockout
was the eighth of Davis’ career, all of which have come in the first two
rounds. Standing 6’4” and weighing 235 pounds, Davis brings size and
tremendous punching power to the ring.
Warren, Ohio native Page, 13-12-1 (5KO’s) has fought numerous highly
regarded contenders and prospects. On October 20, 2006, Page won a
unanimous decision over former world champion Lou Del Valle in
Youngstown, Ohio. He has also been in distance battles with Dominick
Guinn, Jonathan Banks, Mike Mollo and Mike Marrone.
Said Pesoli, “This is a terrific match up and a real test for Carl. Page
is a tough veteran who has been in some close, hard fought fights with
some of the best prospects in boxing.
Carl’s made a big name for himself in Chicago with his quick knockouts
that our fans love, but no one has done that to Page yet.”
The full MANO A MANO fight card is;
Tavoris Cloud vs. Jim Strohl, ten rounds, light heavyweights
Carl Davis vs. Zack Page, ten rounds, heavyweights
Angel Hernandez vs. Kendall Gould, six rounds, middleweights
Leo Martinez vs. TBA, six rounds, lightweights
Jeff Curran vs. Guadalupe Diaz, four rounds, junior middleweights
The weigh-in for MANO A MANO will take place at 7pm on Thursday, May,
10th at Club Aquarius, 2459 N. Pulaski on the northwest side of Chicago.
