Davantae Kirk improves to 5-0 looks to return to action next month

PhilBoxing.com




Davantae Kirk improved to 5-0 with a first-round knockout over Larry Moore this past Friday night at the Motor City Casino in Detroit, Michigan, in front of a standing room only crowd.

Standing at 5’11” tall, Kirk dominated from the opening seconds of the bout. His power and skillset proved to be far too much for Moore to handle. The fight was waved off at the 1:53 mark of the opening stanza.

Kirk plans on remaining very active throughout the rest of the year. With the increased activity, he plans on stepping up another notch in 2024.

“It’s always good to get experience under the lights. The goal is to excel and make every performance better than my last. No time to celebrate. We're right back in the lab,” Kirk stated after the victory.

His advisor, former title challenger Bj Flores, was very pleased with the performance.

He said the plan is for the Michigan native to get right back into action next month.

“5-0, and we are only getting better. We have a long ways to go but we realize nothing in life comes easy and we are prepared to do the work required. Look for Davantae to be featured in October with a much more established opponent. Massive shoutout to all those supporting Davantae to be his best and you know who you are,” said Flores.

“Davantae has proven to be a big ticket seller in his local area of Detroit and his fans are excited to see what’s next for him. He will be right back in a 6 round fight in October. You won’t want to miss it!”
