Viva Don King II Media Workout along with Tony Grano and DaVarryl Williamson – Boxing News
Don King, Hall of Fame promoter, held a media workout for the ‘Viva Don King II’ boxing card that will be taking place at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood. King was joined by most of the fighters that are featured on the card. The media
workout was held at the same venue that is chosen for the event.
Two of the most prominent who pitched in included Tony ‘TNT’ Grano and DaVarryl ‘Touch of Sleep’ Williamson. Both the aforementioned pugilists are heavyweight fighters. Hailing from Hartford, Grano currently stands with 19 wins, 2 losses, 1 tie and 15 knockouts
in his career, whereas Williamson, who hails from Denver, stands with 27 wins, 6 losses and 23 knockouts in his portfolio.
When asked about his preparations, Grano iterated, “I’ve done over 50 rounds of sparring with five different professional heavyweights. I give special thanks to WBA cruiserweight champion Guillermo Jones who came and worked with me. This fight with Williamson
means everything to me. It’s my time to shine.”
On the other hand, Williamson commented, “I felt like a champion during training camp in Denver. I saw Grano on Youtube and checked on him with people in boxing. The good news is that I will not have to send out a search party looking for Grano. He’ll be
right there in front of me. He comes to fight.”
In addition, at the event was present WBC U.S. super welterweight champion Joey ‘Twinkle Fingers’ Hernandez, hailing from Miami, who currently stands with 21 wins, 1 loss, 1 tie and 12 knockouts. Joey will be taking on Brandon Baue, hailing from Troy, who
stands with 12 wins, 6 losses and 10 knockouts.
Hernandez revealed that he has spent eight straight weeks training for his fight against Brandon and that he has been sparring with bigger guys at the King Training Camp. He added that he is sure if he wins Don King, his promoter, will put him against better
fighters on bigger events so he is trying his level best to ensure victory.
Also present at the media workout were Cuban fighter Angelo Santana, with 12 wins, 0 loss and 9 knockouts, along with his upcoming opponent Justin Savi, who stands with 26 wins, 1 loss and 18 knockouts.
