Antonio Pressley vs. Steve Frederick

Post by RiddickBowe »

On your site, you have Antonio Pressley winning a four round decision over Steve Frederick on June 18, 1991. I have a Boxing Illustrated magazine which reports that fight, and it states the DC Commission announced the result wrong, and Steve Frederick won a four round majority decision over Antonio "Tony" Pressley. I'm not sure if you want to take BI's word as golden for this, but I thought I'd let you know.

Also, it announced the weights as 137 1/4 for Frederick and 137 for Pressley, if you're interested.

Fight Fax, the "official keeper of records" has Pressley winning this bout also. :-?

I think it would be wiser to rely on Fight Fax than on Boxing Illustrated.

I would not trust either at this stage -- I would check the DC Commission or, failing that, the newspapers reporting the event.
