Michael Hunter II & Jerry Forrest fight to a draw & TrillerVerz results
Michael Hunter II vs. Jerry Forrest Result
Hammerstein Ballroom in Mid-Town Manhattan, USA – 2 December 2021
On Thursday night, Triller Fight Club returned to New York City with the fourth installment of its highly successful TrillerVerz series, ‘Night of Heavyweights’, as the legendary Hammerstein Ballroom in Mid-Town Manhattan played host to the five-bout evening of world class professional boxing. Following the live boxing event, the broadcast moved to the world-famous Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles, CA for an iconic VERZUZ battle between Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and Three 6 Mafia. The replay of the extraordinary evening can be viewed on FITE.
Among the celebrities in attendance at the Hammerstein Ballroom were Triad Combat Team Captains, Former Heavyweight Boxing World Champion Shannon ‘Let’s GO Champ’ Briggs (Boxing Captain) and Former UFC Superstar and Light Heavyweight World Champion Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson (MMA Captain). Also, in attendance was Former Light Heavyweight Boxing World Champion Chad Dawson in addition to Legendary Hip-Hip DJ Eric B and Welterweight Boxing Contender, Blair ‘The Flair’ Cobbs, both of whom were part of the broadcast team.
In the main event at the Hammerstein Ballroom, World Ranked Heavyweight Michael ‘The Bounty’ Hunter II, (20-1-2, 14 KOs), of Las Vegas, NV and crafty southpaw Jerry ‘Slugger’ Forrest, (26-4-2, 20 KOs), of Newport News, VA fought to a ten-round split-decision draw in an outstanding clash of heavyweight titans. Scores were 96-94 Hunter, 96-94 Forrest and 95-95. The fight was a rematch from their battle in June 2014 won by Hunter.
From the opening bell both heavyweights threw every punch with bad intentions as each was rocked in the early rounds by hellacious hooks to the head. With the huge crowd at the Hammerstein Ballroom on their feet throughout, Forrest seemingly took control of the action in the fifth and sixth rounds only for Hunter to dominate the seventh with huge head shots to end the round.
Fighting the last three rounds knowing the fight hung in the balance both Hunter and Forrest emptied their proverbial gas-tanks with each landing massive bombs that would have ended many heavyweight fights. The crowd in attendance roared with their appreciation at the end of the ten rounds.
In the co-featured ten-rounder between two UNDEFEATED heavyweight contenders, ‘Gentleman’ George Arias, (17-0, 7 KO’s), of Bronx, NY out landed and outworked Cassius C.O.G. Chaney, (21-1, 14 KOs), of New London, CT. Scores at the end of the exciting contest were 99-91 and 97-93 for Arias taking a split decision with the third judge awarding his card to Chaney, 96-94.
Using the first two rounds to navigate the height advantage of Chaney, Arias started peppering the former college basketball player at will in the third round and continued through round six. Chaney came out firing bombs in the seventh and while several did damage, Arias was able to weather the storm and put the fight back on track towards a wide victory on two of the judges’ cards.
In a special attraction ten rounder between UNDEFEATED heavyweight contenders, heavy-handed southpaw Mike Balogun, (18-0, 14 KOs), of Upper Marlboro, MD wasted no time against ‘Son of a Legend’ Trey Lippe-Morrison, (18-1, 17 KOs), of Tulsa, OK. Drilling Lippe-Morrison to the canvas with a massive left hand midway through the first round, the former NFL linebacker would connect against the standing but badly hurt Lippe-Morrison with a barrage of punches as referee Eddie Claudio called a halt to the contest at the 2:41 mark of the opener. Lippe-Morrison is the son of former heavyweight champion of the world, Tommy Morrison.
In a scheduled six-round heavyweight clash, Joe ‘Louis’ Jones, (13-4, 10 KOs), of Jersey City, NJ knocked out ‘Hurricane’ Junior Wright, (18-4-1, 15 KOs), of Evanston, IL in the second round. After a feeling out portion for most of the first round, Jones would drop Wright with a stunning right hand in the final seconds of the stanza. Sending Wright to the canvas again to start the second round with a left hook, overhand right combination, Jones would be awarded the knockout victory as the fight was waived off just 13 seconds into the second round.
Rounding out the exciting card in an action-packed light heavyweight six round clash, Khainell Wheeler, (6-1, 5 KOs), of Bethlehem, PA picked up his first decision victory defeating the heralded and previously UNDEFEATED Frederic Julan, (12-1, 10 KOs) of Brooklyn, NY by unanimous scores of 59-55, 59-55 and 58-56.

Marshall defeats Corral & full pro/amateur day/night results from Derry
Mike Marshall vs. Jose Corral Result
New England Sports Center, in Derry, New Hampshire, USA 28/8/21
New England Heavyweight Champion “Fly” Mike Marshall dominated Jose “Olympico” Corral from start to finish, headlining last night’s “The Come Up” professional card, presented by Granite Chin Promotions, at New England Sports Center, in Derry, New Hampshire.
An amateur card at night completed the day-night doubleheader, highlighted by three championship matches of the inaugural Granite Chin Invitational.
“This was a crucial set-up fight for Mike, who it appears will be fighting on the Fury-Wilder III card against,” Granite Chin president Chris Traietti said. “We hope to sign a contract next week. This was a big fight for Quintan Sumpter as well. We’ll find out next week, but all signs are pointing in the right direction. Despite this being a smaller Granite Chin show, implications were bigger, and Quinton may be fighting on Fury-Wilder III, too.
“The start to the Granite Chin Invitational wasn’t ideal, but we ended up with some good amateur boxers from New England. It takes time to build just like Granite Chin. I’m going to keep at it until I make this the marquee amateur tournament in New England.”
In a non-title fight, Marshall concentrated on a body attack early and often to wear down his tough Mexican opponent Corral (20-27, 12 KOs). The constantly learning Marshall, fighting out of Danbury, Connecticut, worked 10 invaluable rounds in terms of his relatively young boxing career, winning a shutout decision (100 X 3, Corral penalized 1 point for hitting behind the head)
In the co-featured event, welterweight Denzel “Double Impact” Whitley (6-0, 5 KOs) dazzled once again, methodically breaking down Dewayne Wisdom (7-59-2, 3 KOs), until the ending came by knockout via a single punch in round two.
In a battle of Springfield (MA) light heavyweights, Laurent Humes (2-0, 2 KOs) used stiff jabs and crisp counters to drop Jesus Cintron twice in the opening round, the final time with a body shot, for an impressive technical knockout win.
Light heavyweight Steve Sumpter (1-0, 1 KO), whose older brother Quinton fought one fight prior to his, flashed his skills from his southpaw stance, flooring Tahlik Taylor (3-19-1, 1 KO) twice in the opening round, the latter time ending the fight with a straight left to Taylor’s nose.
2020 New England Novice Golden Gloves champion Quinton Sumpter (1-0, 1 KO) turned in an auspicious pro debut, landing a strong right cross that knocked out heavyweight Gabriel Aguilar (0-1) in the first round.
In his professional debut, lanky middleweight Jamer Jones (1-0, 1KO) effectively used his decisive height and reach advantage, decking Carlos Galindo (1-18) three times in round one, and he closed the show in the second with a sweet left hook.
Undefeated heavyweight Dennis Nolan (3-0, 3 KOs) registered a one-punch knockout of Andre Nolan (0-2) late in the opening round.
Junior middleweight Carlos Castillo (3-0, 3 KOs) remained undefeated, landing one powerful right hand that left Jader Alves (0-12) leg-less and in trouble, when the referee waved-off the fight in the fourth round.
Cruiserweight Raphael Torres (1-0, 1 KO) won his pro debut against a game Scott “Scotty Bombs” Lampert (2-3, 2 KOs), stopping him with one-second remaining in the third round.
Promising middleweight prospect Josniel “TG” Castro (5-0, 3 KOs), fighting out of Baton Raton (F), floored Aquilano Brandao (0-7) four times en route to a first round technical knockout victory. Castro, who grew up in Lawrence (MA), dedicated the fight to his childhood friend, U.S. Marine Sgt. Johanny Rosario, who died in the recent Afghanistan bombing.
Light heavyweight Jeff Esposito (1-0) won a 4-round split decision against Hiram Aponte (0-1) in a battle of pro debut fighters.
Local fan favorite “El Gallo” Kevin Rodriguez (2-1, 1 KO) simply overwhelmed lightweight Brandon Ruffin (0-6), battering him to the canvas with a flurry of punches, and closing the show moments later with an overhand right midway through round one.
Two-time World cruiserweight title challenger Junior “Hurricane” Wright (18-4-1, 15 KOs) opened the afternoon segment of the doubleheader with a first-round technical knockout of Alfredo “Choncho” Trevino. Wright connected on a perfectly placed left hook to Trevino’s chin.
Three Granite Chin Invitational Champions Crowned
The Granite Chin Invitational, sanctioned by USA Boxing, winners were lightweight Jaydell Pazmino, welterweight Apostolus Lolas, and middleweight Wade Faria. Six non-tournament matches were also held.
