(JULY 14) Not only has it been a task to find opponents for White Rock’s undefeated heavyweight sensation Moultrie “Mooch” Witherspoon, it has equally been hard to find sparring partners.

Nevertheless, Billy Stanick is bringing top notch heavyweights from all over the country to spar several times a month with Witherspoon. Recently, Stanick talked with
Jerry "Ace" Miller, Trainer and Director of Golden Gloves Boxing of Knoxville, scheduled some sparring matches with Miller’s own heavyweight Alonzo "Big Zo" Butler who was in White Rock this past weekend sparring with Mooch.

The Big Zo’s professional record currently stands at 17-0-1 (14KO’s)  Butler has many notorious sparring partners such as Calvin Brock; who has an unblemished fight record of 26-0-0 (21KO’s), and former heavyweight champion Oliver McCall. September 1994, in London McCall went up against (at that time) the undefeated WBC Heavyweight Lennox Lewis. In what was scheduled for 12 rounds, McCall called it an early night with a TKO win over Lewis in the 2nd round. These two heavyweights came back for a rematch in February 1997 in Las Vegas, this time the WBC Heavyweight Title was vacant and the tables turned in favor of Lewis who won this bout in round 5 with a TKO and again took reign over the WBC Heavyweight Title.

The next sparring match for Moultrie is scheduled for Saturday July 23rd at WRB.

If you are a WRB sponsor you have an open invitation to all sparring matches. Please visit our website often for up-to-date information.
