Rounding out the show are four more six round bouts. Woods is on a three fight win streak, his most recent victory an upset first round TKO just down the road over Toledo’s then undefeated Cassius Anderson. He’ll have to be on his game as he takes on spoiler Jamal Woods (16-38-7, 11 KOs). Rydell lost a title eliminator to James Toney before some unfortunate life decisions put him on the wrong side of the law. Inactive for a long stretch due to legal problems, Booker has regained control over his life and is eager to make some noise in boxing’s glamour division again. Detroit’s Rydell Booker (23-1, 12 KO’s) makes his first ring appearance in these parts since 2004. On this “Night of Knockouts XII” he has also put together an interesting semi main event heavyweight six rounder. Promoter/matchmaker Carlos Llinas is once again the driving force behind what has become one of the most consistent, long running (if not the longest) casino fight series in the country. Harris will look to impress his hometown fans but may have to work harder in this one than he has in some of his recent contests. Harris (16-0, 9 KOs) has mostly steam rolled through his opponents thus far and seasoned Garcia (16-7-1, 11 KOs) is somewhat of a step up in competition for him. Boxing returns to the Sound Board inside MotorCity Casino-Hotel this Friday night as Detroit’s own Winfred “Hot Boy” Harris looks to continue his rise thorough the middleweight ranks when he battles Mexico’s Aaron Garcia in the eight round main event of a scheduled eleven bout card.
