Just announced. Comebacking middleweight KO artist James “The Mandingo Warrior” Kirkland (34-2, 30 KOs) versus Marcos Hernandez (14-3-1, 3 KOs) on March 14 at MGM National Harbor in Oxon Hill, Maryland. FS1 will televise. The 35-year-old Kirkland is 2-0 with 2 KOs against unheralded opponents since resuming his career after a four-year layoff.
The card also features unbeaten 2016 Olympian welterweight Eimantas Stanionis(10-0, 7 KOs) taking on Justin DeLoach (18-4, 9 KOs) in the 10-round co-main event.
Kirkland was at his best when Ann Wolfe had him by the neck with a tight leash. However, life changed for him. If I can recall correctly, he was arrested a while back for having a firearm under a disability (felony on record). That’s a no-no on a federal and state level. I think Kirkland has been struggling on/off to find his niche since those times.
If it aint with Ann Wolfe, it doesn’t matter!!!
Why is he fighting a guy with no power I guess he will step up soon
Looks like am obvious mismatch, but with James Kirkland, ya never know!
Maybe he can make some money
