2011)—This past
Saturday night at Resorts Casino in Atlantic City, Maurice successfully
defended the USBA Heavyweight title with an exciting twelfth round
stoppage
over Derric Rossy that was part of a exciting five bout card promoted
by Carla

was
very effective throughout the fight as he divvied up his punches as he
landed
many straight rights’s and
left hook
that had Rossy at bay.
Rossy tried very
hard and some good moments when he got inside. With the
fight coming down the stretch, Harris battered Rossy in round eleven
and took
control of the fight.

deal by dropping Rossy in round eleven.
Rossy like a true warrior got
to his feet and took some more hard shots
before the fight was stopped at 1:35 if round twelve. With the

Bowe” Harvell worked very hard to stay undefeated as he and

be the distance
and gained the split decision victory to stay perfect at 8-0. Irish

unanimous
decisiom over Artie Bembury in a Middleweight bout. Seldon
and
Bembury exchanged insults at Friday’s weigh-in and the
hostilities trickled
into the fight as the two went at it tooth and nail. While

controlled most of the action, he got drilled with a shot in round
three and
had to hold on throughout the frame as he won on shaky legs. Seldon is
