Greg "Sharp Shooter" Outlaw Blasted Jonathan Montrel In First Round!

Last night on the Rising Star Promotions card inside the Adrian Phillips Theater at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey, the main-event was set for a eight-round junior welterweight championship bout for the WBA-NABA Gold title. 

Greg “Sharp Shooter” Outlaw of Bowie, MD won by TKO at 1:14 of  the first round over Jonathan “John Boy” Montrel of New Orleans, La. Most of the action took place in the center of the ring last night. Both Outlaw and Montrel took the opportunity to set the pace by using their jabs. Outlaw was waiting patiently while Montrel tried to land shots to the body inside the guard of Outlaw. As Montrel missed with a right cross and threw a low left hook, Outlaw came back to land a powerful counter left hook that sent Montrell to the canvas. Montrel stood back up but staggered against the ropes causing referee Shada Murdaugh to stop the contest. 

Greg Outlaw improves his record to (10-1, 5 KO's) while Jonathan Montrel suffers his first defeat with a record of (12-1, 7 KO's).
