The entire TGB Promotions card that will take place on Saturday, May 11th is now complete with the last three Beltway Boxers on the card receiving opponents. 

Laurel, MD super middleweight Demond "D'Best At It" Nicholson will be in a 10-round contest against Ernest Amuzu or Prichard, AL by way of Ghana.  Nicholson (21-3-1, 20 KO's) is the reigning WBC USNBC and Maryland State Super Middleweight champion.  However, neither title will be on the line in this contest.  Nicholson won the Maryland State title in his last outing, a first-round TKO over Jessie Nicklow on March 8th in Hanover, MD.

Amuzu (25-4, 22 KO's) makes only his second appearance in the United States after mostly competing in his native Ghana.  Amuzu's first bout in the US was his last contest where he lost to Brandon Robinson by third-round TKO on September 14th in Philadelphia, PA.

Undefeated Bowie, MD super lightweight Greg "Sharpshooter" Outlaw will compete in his first eight-round contest when he takes on Martin "El Guapo" Nicolas Matamala of Cipoletti, Argentina.  Outlaw (7-0, two KO's) comes off a first-round no-contest against Tyrone Crawley on the March 8th card in Hanover, MD.  Matamala (11-7, three KO's) comes to the United States for the first time and will be trying to break a two-bout losing streak that includes a six-round unanimous decision loss to Carlos Armando Santana on November 2nd in Sarmiento, Argentina.

Also, Baltimore, MD super middleweight Lorenzo "Truck" Simpson will be in a four-round encounter against Lorawnt T. Nelson of Arvada, CO.  Simpson (3-0, two KO's) last fought on March 24th and won a four-round unanimous decision over Jaime Meza on March 24th in Oxon Hill, MD.  Nelson (5-2, four KO's) comes off back-to-back first-round TKO's against debuting boxers in his last two bouts.  Nelson stopped Joe Miles in the first on March 23rd in Golden, CO.

Meanwhile, the main event has been announced for the Tricky Entertainment card that will take place on Saturday, May 18th at the Entertainment and Sports Arena in Washington, DC.  Largo, MD super middleweight Dominic "Lights Out" Wade will battle Nick "The Machine Gun" Brinson of Geneva, NY in a 10-round contest for WBC and IBO Regional Super Middleweight titles.  The bout will be a rematch of a June 2014 Las Vegas, NV bout that Wade won by 10-round unanimous decision.

Wade (20-1, 14 KO's) comes off a fifth-round TKO win over Josue Obando on February 23rd in Charlotte, NC.  Brinson (19-4-2, nine KO's) has not fought since June of 2017 when he scored a sixth-round TKO over Jaime Barboza in Verona, NY.
