McCall-Wilson on tap for September

Press Release:  Oliver McCall, who once knocked out Lennox Lewis, will fight in the hometown of the legendary Muhammad Ali on Saturday, September 9, 2006 whens he faces veteran Darroll Wilson with a regional title at stake.  Also featured on this nine bout card will be Israeli heavyweight prospect Roman Greenberg, who will look to improve on his 22-0 (15 KOs) record against an opponent to be announced shortly. McCall, 47-8 with 34 KOs, has fought the best of this era and is unbeaten in his last seven fights. "The Atomic Bull" is coming off a first round TKO of veteran Kenny Craven in June. Darroll Wilson (27-8-2, 21 KOs) can hit hard.  Just ask top contender Shannon Briggs, who suffered his first loss via a third round TKO by Wilson back in 1996.  Chris Webb Promotions, Seminole Warriors Boxing, and Sampson Lewkowicz will present the show, live from the Louisville Gardens in Louisville, Kentucky.  Azteca American TV will televise the show nationally.
