Powell and Green Back In Action


On February 29th's "Friday Night Fights" broadcast from the Paragon Casino Resort in Marksville, Louisiana, features IBF #1-rated Sechew "Iron Horse" Powell (23-1, 13 KOs) and IBF/WBO #14 super middleweight rated Allan "Sweetness" Green (26-1, 18 KOs) in dual main events. Powell, coming off an impressive TKO over Olympian Terence Cauthen, is slated to face Kevin Finley (12-0-1, 9 KOs), while Green is set to face big-punching Samuel Miller (18-2, 15 KOs). Both guys are taking these fights to stay busy because nothing is ever carved in stone when it comes to boxing. They are both doing the right thing by stay busy and providing for their families, why sit and wait a year for a title shot. You can be ranked the #1 mandatory challenger and still get overlooked in this sport. I applaud both of them for wanting to fight more than the twice a year schedule as most fighters do.
