Attention: Virginia, Washington, DC and Maryland Boxing Fans – Babie Girl Productions is Back on Friday April 2nd Live from the Washington, DC Convention Center
By “Bad” Brad Berkwitt
This past Saturday night, I attended a pre fight party with my lady Valarie at the classy Hogates Café at 800 Water Street, SW DC located on the waterfront. Cassandra White (CEO of Babie Girl Productions) and the 2009 USA Promoter of the Year, an honor bestowed upon her by the World Boxing Federation (WBF), officially announced her boxing card that takes place Friday April 2nd at the DC Convention Center. In the crowd were many of the boxers appearing on the card to include local fan favorite and undefeated heavyweight contender, Seth “Mayhem” Mitchell, 15-0-1, 9 KO’s, who is headlining in the main event against Danny Batchelder, 25-7-1, 3 KO’s.
Also scheduled to appear on the card are: Tony Jeter, Henry “Sugar Poo” Buchanan, Thomas Snow, Molly McConnell and making his professional debut, Thomas Williams. The card is billed as “Fighting the Irish” and from past cards that BGP has put on, you can be sure this one will not disappoint.
In an article I wrote back in December 2008, when I made my comeback to covering local boxing after an extended departure, you will recall that it was Cassandra’s fight card from the Burr Gymnasium I attended on the campus of Howard University. That night, I saw a lady who is committed to bringing the boxing fans the very best matches/locations she can and from subsequent cards after the one I covered in 2008, she has done just that.
As I have said many times over the years on Sports Talk TV Show with Host Glenn Harris when callers would call in and ask when is boxing coming back to this area? It has never left, and in order to keep it here, you must come out and support these local cards. You get your chance to do just that on April 2nd from the DC Convention Center. I suggest you get your tickets now because no doubt, it will be sold out.
