September Fights at the Fitz Report!
By: Michael Sheffield at ringside
A group of up and coming fighters put on an impressive display of power in what turned out to be short evenings for them and their opponents during the September edition of Prize Fight Boxing’s Fights at the Fitz series at the Fitz Hotel and Casino, Tunica, MS.
None of the four preliminary fights lasted longer than a round and a half, and Olympians Deontay Wilder and Gary Russell Jr. decimated their opponents, Shannon Caudle and Willie Villanueva, respectively with power that neither fighter had ever seen.
The heavyweight Wilder (11-0, 11 KOs) would add to his undefeated record with a two-punch destruction of the undefeated Shannon Caudle (9-0, 8 KOs).
The outcome of the fight was never in doubt from the time the fighters entered the ring until the fight reached its inevitable conclusion
Wilder, who had at least a 6 inch height advantage over Caudle, landed two punches, a right hook to Caudle’s body that reverberated throughout the Fitz event hall and a jab that landed on the top Caudle’s head. Caudle immediately dropped as if he was hit with a gunshot and referee Randy Phillips 10-count was a formality. Caudle wouldn’t stay down for long after the count out, but anyone sitting ringside could clearly see an imprint from Wilder’s glove in his head. The official time was 1:04 in the first round.
