8 round all-American eastern seaboard heavyweight journeyman rumble headlining a King's Promotions card tomorrow in Philly. No word yet on broadcast or streaming options if any but watch this space. The victor probably isn't going on to accomplish much of anything significant, but they might crack the U.S. top 15 rankings and set themselves up for a payday keeping the gates against some unbeaten domestic prospect on TV. Plus, you know, bragging rights. Five inch height differential between them, but each man weighed two-fifty-something in their last outing. Lots of social media trash-talk so could be a fun little war. Here is the first of Dawejko's triune ring appearances last year, versus Stephan "Big Shot" Shaw: This content is protected And here, since virtually all footage of Madison is of his losses (most notably to Mihai Nistor), is the most flattering video to be found, a mutual first-blemish draw with then fellow unbeaten Jo-ël Shalon "Quiet Storm" Caudle in 2017: This content is protected
Yeah, hoping for a shaky ringside handycam live stream provided by the promoter or either camp at the very least.
Turns out it'll be on bxngtv.com for anyone that happens to be a subscriber or feels like shelling out $20 for...uh, this.
I know @The Professor subscribes to BXNGTV.com (or did last year anyway) - does anybody else? Is the odd vaguely interesting small hall show worth it? This is a seriously low-rent main event to drop a Jackson on.
So this is on their Wednesday Night Fight show tomorrow, I gather. Unfortunately, I can never watch these live as I have classes Wednesday nights this semester. Shame too, as I'd actually like to see this one. People crap on these kinds of fights, but as an aficionado of second tier boxing (maybe because I grew up with the old ESPN and USA weekly shows), I love them. The great thing is, since very few people give a **** about them, you can watch them later without having the results spoiled by someone posting them!!
Been awhile, forgot my password. Just reset it & logged in and have confirmed, this is a paywalled event and costs $19.99 ... This content is protected
Incomplete, picks up from halfway into the first round and ends abruptly halfway into the fifth (so missing the other halves of both of those, plus the sixth & final). Better than nothin', though. This content is protected Courtesy of Joey Dawejko's gym. (although some lady sitting very near the cameraperson was cheering loudly for Madison the whole time) Looks to be what you'd expect, pretty much. Some rock 'em sock 'em robots interspersed with periods of nervous-energy caginess. Bombs landed here & there but nobody ever really in dire straights. Fair amount of blood.
