Press Release: Undefeated light heavyweight Tavoris Cloud will face veteran Aaron Norwood on Friday February 16, 2007 in Cicero, Illinois on a show presented by Dominic Pesoli’s 8 Count Productions. The Tallahassee, Florida native, Cloud has built his record to 13-0 with 12 KOs since turning pro two years ago. In his last outing on November 10, 2006, Cloud rang up a fourth-round knockout of Douglas LaFontsee. Norwood from Hattiesburg, MS sports a record of 22-7-2 (11KO’s). Said Cloud after finishing up a recent sparring session in Miami, “I haven’t seen Norwood fight but I prepare to be at my very best for each fight. At this point it’s important that I concentrate on what I need to do when the bell rings.” Speaking about his popular reputation for brutal knockouts in the last year in Chicago, Cloud said, “I don’t look for knockouts. I’m skilled enough to outbox many of the guys I face but I also know how to close the show when it’s time.” Tickets for the CIcero Stadium show are on sale in advance by calling 312-226-5800.
