Hot prospects Justin Figueroa, Dominque Crowder & Avious Griffin all Remain undefeated with Knockout Victories at Tropicana Atlantic City

PhilBoxing.com





ATLANTIC CITY, NJ (November 17, 2024) – Sensational knockouts was the theme during last night’s professional boxing card, presented by Boxing Insider Promotions, as only three of nine matches went the distance in The Showroom at Tropicana Atlantic City.

All the action was streamed live on DAZN from The Trop.

In the last of three triple-main events, hometown favorite Justin “Mr. Atlantic City” Figueroa (11-0) thrilled his enthusiastic fanbase with a fourth-round stoppage of junior middleweight Omar “El Charro” Rosales (9-4-1, 5 KOs) improving to 11-0 with his ninth knockout. The 25-year-old Figueroa came out firing and never slowed down, pummeling Rosales with left and right hooks enroute to his ninth pro career knockout.

World Boxing Association (WBA) International Bantamweight Champion Dominique “Dimes” Crowder (18-0, 11 KOs), of Baltimore, blasted out 2012 Ghana Olympian Duke “The Baby Face Assassin” Micah (24-3, 19 KOs) in the opening round. Crowder barely worked up a sweat as he decked Micha early with a straight right hand from which he was unable to beat the referee’s count. Crowder is ranked No. 14 in the world by the WBA.

Heavy-handed Tennessee welterweight Avious Griffin improved to 16-0 with his 15th knockout, putting Adrian Gutierrez (12-4-1, 6 KOs) to sleep with a powerful right in round three, extending his KO streak to nine.

Another undefeated fighter, Italy’s “Iron” Jack Michelo (9-0, 7 KOs), was one of four to register knockouts in the opening round, when junior welterweight Ronnell “The Punisher” Burnett (11-2, 7 KOs) was unable to continue due to him suffering a broken hand. Micheli was a standout amateur, highlighted by gold medal performances in the 2021 Italian Elite Nationals and U22 Nationals.

Local heavyweight Bruce “Atlantic City Express 2.0” Seldon (4-0, 3 KOs) – the son of world heavyweight champion Bruce Seldon – went the distance for the first time as a pro and earned a fourth-round unanimous decision over Julio “God’s Warrior” Mendoza (3-5, 2 KOs).

Celebrated U.S. amateur, Donte Layne (5-0, 5 KOs) kept his pro record perfect with a first-round knockout of Shaquille Camerson (7-4, 6 KOs). Layne, 21, was the 2022 USA Nationals and National Golden Gloves Champion.

In what was expected to be the toughest test of his young pro career, Paterson (NJ) junior middleweight Dwyke “The Real Silverback” Flemmings, Jr. more than passed the exam, making it 9-for-9 (9-0, 9 KOs) with an opening round cessation by knockout of David Lobo Ramirez (17-3, 12 KOs).

Highly touted junior welterweight prospect Stacia “The Natural” Suttles (2-0, 1 KO), fighting out of Philadelphia, won a four-round unanimous decision over Mariya “Money Mashka” Agapova )0-1-1). Suttles was a 2016 USA Women’s National Champion.

Another sensational U.S. amateur, “Da Beast” Shera Mae Patricio (3-0, 1 KO), cruised to a four-round unanimous decision over Sarah “Switch Kick” Click (1-8-1, 0 KOs). Patricio was the 2023 USA National Golden Gloves and 2022 USA Nationals Champion.

Legendary promoter Don Elbaum, who promoted 196 shows at The Tropicana during a five-year period alone (1982-1986), was honored by promoter Larry Goldberg.

An amateur show, sanctioned by USA Boxing, was held today (Sunday) at Tropicana Atlantic City and 100-percent of the proceeds was donated to the Atlantic City PAL.

Boxing Insider Promotions’ next scheduled event, “Holiday Fight Night 3,” will be Tuesday, December 17, at Sony Hall in New York City.
