Ice Promotions officials announced today that DeMarcus “Chop Chop” Corley (35-11-1, 21 KOs) will meet Harrison Cuello (18-11-3, 14 KOs) in the eight-round co-Main Event at the live boxing card featuring Jimmy Lange scheduled for September 26, 2009 at the Patriot Center.
The hard-hitting Dominican-born Cuello, now fighting out of Albany, NY is stepping in as a solid replacement for Detroit southpaw Damian Fuller who suffered a broken rib in training camp last week and had to pull out of the anticipated fight.
A Washington, D.C. native and former WBO world champion, Corley is making his first area appearance since 2004. Looking to get back onto the national scene, he has recorded four wins in his last five fights, earning an eight-round TKO victory over Kenyan James Kimori in Astana, Kazakhstan on August 15, 2009.
“Saturday Night Fights” features WBC USNBC champion and Northern Virginia fan favorite Jimmy Lange defending his title against former “Contender” teammate Jonathan Reid in the 12-round Main Event. Other beltway boxers slated to compete on the card include Bayan Jargal, Jennifer Salinas, Tony Jeter, Tracy Brewer, Barry Trotter, Keith Gross, Kendrick Walker and Alexander Johnson.
Doors open at 6:30pm with the first fight set for 7:30pm.
