ABELL SILENCES WHITE


By Jesse Kelley- Minnesotaboxing.com
Joey "Minnesota Ice" Abell (25-4, 24 KO's) stopped Larry "Super King" White (3-7, 3KO's) in round two Saturday night in Mounds View, MN. Abell cleverly landed big left hands to the head in round one while bobbing and weaving away from White's counter punching attempts. White did a lot of talking and mocking of Abell in round one, inviting the big southpaw to engage him. Abell smiled as he rocked White on several occasions.
A big right uppercut from Abell rocked White early in round two. White switched his passive strategy after taking the shot and came forward with heavy punches. A slugfest momentarily broke out as both men looked to land a knockout punch. Abell put an end to White's KO hopes with a crushing right hand to the head that sent him slumping to the canvas where referee Mark Nelson waived the fight off midway through the round.
In other action, Jon "Iron Man" Schmidt (9-1, 7 KO's) stopped Dan Copp (0-1) in round three. Schmidt spent most of the fight stalking Copp with a hard jab and body punches. Copp, an MMA fighter, constantly circled and moved while throwing countering punches. After two slower rounds, Schmidt turned up the pressure in round three. A right hand to the head staggered Copp and sent him stumbling to the ropes. Schmidt followed up with another right to the head that sent Copps mouth piece flying and Mark Nelson stopped the fight at 1:49 of the third round.
Jeremy McLaurin (4-0, 4 KO's) was too much for southpaw Harold McLeod (0-2).
Charles Meier (2-1, 1 KO) stopped Ryan Stock (0-1) at 1:21 of the third round in the nights opening bout.
The bout between Rocky Graziano and Quincy Miner did not take place. Word is that Miner had an argument with his girlfriend and decided to leave the fight venue moments before his bout.


OLIVERIA CONTINUES TO ROLL
by Jesse Kelley

Unbeaten light heavyweight Marcus Oliveria (19-0, 15 KO's) continued to look impressive as he nearly decapitated Otis Griffin (19-6, 7 KO's) with a vicious uppercut to the head near the end of round two in the co-main event. Ironically, it was Griffin who started the action with a right uppercut to Oliveria's jaw in the opening moments of the bout. Both men traded heavy leather but Oliveria looked to be the stronger puncher. Oliveria would confirm this as he landed the fight ending uppercut at 2:25 of the second round. The shot sent Griffin backwards head first on the canvas where he he was laid out for a few minutes.

Look For Oliveria in action next at the "Barnyard Brawl" in Prescott, Wi on Aug 29th.

 

 


STAYING GOLDEN
by Jesse Kelley

Middleweight "Golden" Caleb Truax (11-0, 8 KO's) won an eight round split decision over southpaw Durrell Richardson (11-3, 4 KO's) in a featured bout. Truax stalked his opponent as he attempted to pick apart Richardson who was content to throw rights to the body and get out of harms way. Truax's higher workrate swayed the judges his way as Richardson seemed happier to display his defensive skills rather then engage with Truax. Scores read 79-74, 77-75, and 80-72 for Truax.

Look for Truax to be facing Robert Kayma (16-10) in July.
