\"237d1ba5-9836-44a6-89af-4ba44e162dc5\"<\/a>Chazz “The Gentleman” Witherspoon is ready for a big fight against a top heavyweight, but first, he must get past Mike Marrone On Saturday night, as D & D Promotions and Silver Spoon Promotions will present “Rumble at the Rink II” at the Grundy Arena in Bristol, Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n

Witherspoon (34-3, 26 KO’s) of Paulsboro, New Jersey is ready for the former world title challenger and he has taken him as a serious challenge for this Saturday’s main event.<\/p>\n

“Training has been good. I am ready to fight on Saturday,” said Witherspoon.<\/p>\n

“I know Marrone from the amateurs. We have spoken before at tournaments. He seems like a nice guy, and I know he will come to fight. He won’t lay down and I am expecting a good fight.”<\/p>\n

Witherspoon has won four in a row by knockout knows that with another win or two, he will have a big opportunity at one of the top names in the heavyweight division.<\/p>\n

“I am waiting for the right opportunity. It has to make sense. I am willing to take stay busy fights and continue to hone my craft. If the opportunity isn’t next, then I will continue to stay busy.”<\/p>\n

Witherspoon knows that it will take one big win to become a major player in the suddenly wide-open heavyweight division.<\/p>\n
