Welterweight Michael Williams Jr (21-1, 14 KOs) faces Michael Whitt (32-2-2, 25 KOs) for fhe NBA title on Saturday night at the Crown Coliseum in Fayetteville, North Carolina. After professional boxing took a three year hiatus from the state, Team Williams put on the first pro boxing show on August 12 with Williams Jr scoring a highlight reel stoppage of Ricardo David Ocampo. Whitt will be a major step up for Williams Jr.

Sadly, North Carolina’s allowed its boxing commission to become a joke. It’s no wonder there’s not been a card here in three years. The whole damned operation is run out of a small office by a part time executive director and an admin assistant – meanwhile Virginia hired North Carolina’s most prominent boxing official as THEIR executive director while our state played with itself.
