Promoter Cedric Kushner will present a sensational Heavyweight Explosion
fight card in New York City on Thursday, April 27, 2000, in the Hammerstein

APRIL 27, 2000
HAMMERSTEIN BALLROOM -
NEW YORK, NY

MAIN EVENT - 10 ROUNDS, HEAVYWEIGHTS

ROBERT DAVIS

Akron, OH Vs.
CALVIN LAMPKIN
19-3, 11 KOs
Grand Prairie, TX


CO-FEATURE - 10 ROUNDS, HEAVYWEIGHTS

AL COLE

Spring Valley, NY
Vs. WILLIE WILLIAMS
15-3, 10 KOs
East Point, GA

In his last fight, on 4-1-00, Robert Davis won the NABF INTERIM TITLE in
Las Vegas, NV, knocking Keith McKnight (38-2): Robert scored two knockdown
in the 2nd round, one in the 4th, and another to finish the fight at 2:07 of
the 5th.

Before losing a decision in his last fight, "Cowboy" Calvin Lampkin had won
18 in a row. A former member of the Army's "Ranger" unit, he learned to box
while in the service, where he reportedly went 15-0 as an amateur. As a pro,
two of his losses came very early in his career against troubled contender
Ike Ibeabuchi.

Former IBF cruiserweight champion Al Cole was 6-0 in world championship
fights. He vacated the title to move up to the heavyweight division in 1996,
and has proven to be a tough, tenacious competitor. He has fought two of the
best young prospects in the division, Michael Grant once and Kirk Johnson
twice, and held his own in all three exciting fights. He has wins against
two fighters who went on to win cruiserweight world titles, Nate Miller and
Uriah Grant.

Willie "Black Steel" Williams is an aggressive, hard-hitting slugger, and
always makes exciting fights.

That is a lot of heavyweights. It's not a good sign when they don't even list
the other guys record.
