LAS VEGAS – The unshakable sadness is evident in Cody Crowley’s voice. Nine month after his father’s suicide, the undefeated Canadian welterweight contender isn’t afraid to admit that he is “broken” and “a little bit f------ up.” Crowley has thought about Jim Crowley, the man who introduced him to boxing and was his biggest fan, throughout a long, grueling training camp for his career-shaping fight against Abel Ramos on Saturday night at MGM Grand Garden Arena.

Atlanta, GA

Atlanta’s top upscale venue hosted the former NBA all-star and celebrity friends. The legend Shaquille O’Neal celebrated his 51st birthday at Atlanta’s news west hotspot, The Bank. O’Neal’s party was hosted by one of Atlanta’s Top Business executives, restaurateur, and builder, William Platt. Platt is Atlanta’s golden knight. He was the man who revitalized the Westside. He intentionally brought Hollywood to Donald Lee Hollowell BLVD, which is only the beginning. Platt could have built his multi-millionaire luxury venue anywhere but chose to invest in the community. No one would have ever imagined that Atlanta’s hottest premiere destination and venue would be in Bankhead.

LAS VEGAS – This wasn’t the type of stoppage Jesus Ramos was confident he would produce Saturday night, but he beat Joey Spencer by technical knockout. Spencer’s father and trainer, Jason, asked referee Tony Weeks to stop their 10-round junior middleweight match in the sixth round after Ramos connected with a left-right-left-right-left combination that moved Spencer backward. Spencer was on his feet when Weeks halted the action at 1:25 of the sixth round.

LAS VEGAS – Cody Crowley smiled wide when he was informed Abel Ramos expects to overwhelm Crowley with his power Saturday night. The confident Canadian welterweight contender has heard it all before, but he remains undefeated nine years after he moved to Las Vegas from his tiny hometown in search of boxing glory. His unblemished record will remain intact, Crowley promised, when the aggressive southpaw opposes Ramos in a 12-round WBC elimination match on the David Benavidez-Caleb Plant undercard at MGM Grand Garden Arena.

Abel Ramos was in the room when the call came. Like the rest of Team Ramos, he was pleasantly surprised to learn that unbeaten junior middleweight prospect Joey Spencer wanted to fight his nephew, Jesus, on the David Benavidez-Caleb Plant undercard Saturday night. Though the welterweight contender obviously favors his nephew, he applauded both boxers for taking this type of risk at similar stages of their careers.
