According to Philadelphia promoting legend and boxing historian Russell Peltz, two of the most brutal twelfth-round knockouts in Philly boxing memory were scored by South Philadelphia's Garrett "GQ" Wilson at Bally's Atlantic City in New Jersey. Wilson starched Chuck Mussachio late in 2011 and Andres Taylor in 2012. Peltz conntinues, "No longer ranked but looking for a way back to the top, Wilson takes on Brian Howard [13-2] in the eight-round main event on Friday, March 1st, at the Parx Casino in Bensalem, PA. Wilson is the King Gabriel Rosado of the 200-pound division, willing to fight anyone, anywhere and at any time. His 18-15-1 record is one of the most deceiving in boxing. He has boxed all over the country as well as in Russia and Romania and he never is in a bad fight and he often does not get a break on the scorecards. He will have his hands full with Howard as both veterans look for a way back into the world rankings."

Wilson vs. Howard tops a seven-bout card in the 1,300-seat Parx Xcite Center. Call 215-364-9000 for tickets
