In the two supporting bouts over six rounds, Guyana’s super-middleweight champion Deryck Richmond will face off with Romeo Norville while Rose Hall Town’s Keshawn Simon will oppose with veteran pugilist Mark Murray. Allicock lost to Richardson by unanimous decision in July 2012 but defeated Carlton Skeete by knockout early last year. Richardson also has victories over David Thomas, Orlando Rogers and Rudolph Fraser but suffered losses to Skeete, Fraser in a rematch, Dexter `Kid’ Marques, Prince Lee Isidore and Quincy Gomes.
