To raise anti-bullying awareness in the community and throughout the boxing world, Baltimore Boxing is teaming up with Unified Efforts’ “I Belong” campaign. Founded in 2012 by former Baltimore detective Debbie Ramsey, Unified Efforts is a full-service bullying prevention organization.
“We can stop bullying with Unified Efforts,” said Ramsey, whose efforts earned her the Baltimore Citation Award for Community Service. “The “I Belong” campaign is teaming up with Baltimore Boxing to help students achieve academic success by ending violence and bullying. Our goal is to continue taking violence and bullying off the streets.”
Throughout the event, Ramsey will distribute anti-bullying pamphlets and is also going to speak to the crowd on bullying prevention.
“I’m happy Unified Efforts and Baltimore Boxing was able to come together for this event,” said Smith, who recently became president of the South Atlantic Amateur Boxing Association, which oversees Maryland. “It’s been a focal point of Baltimore Boxing to team up with organizations that better the community. I look forward to working with Debbie on knocking out bullying.”

November 15th was the day that the Beltway Boxing area was waiting for! It took a little over two years to make this rematch happen. On October 27, 2012 Jeter fought the best fight of his career. Jeter won a 10-round split decision over the more highly-regarded Jimmy Lange. 
Jeter finished 2012 with titles in the WBC and listed in the top 15 ranking in both the USBA and NABA. He closed out 2012 by being awarded the Beltway Boxing Boxer Of The Year Award. The rematch was a much more competitive bout from both fighters. Lange moved much better and was able to establish his jab to keep Jeter off of him a little better than the first match-up. When Jeter was able to get inside he did land many uppercuts and body shots.
