Corley survives two early knockdowns to win WBC FEACRBOX title by majority decision

New WBC FECARBOX lightweight champ! Referee, Eon Jardine raises the hand of DeMarcus ‘Chop Chop’ Corley after a slugfest with Dexter ‘The Cobra’ Gonsalves Saturday night at the Giftland Mall.

DeMarcus ‘Chop Chop’ Corley and Dexter ‘The Cobra’ Gonsalves kept throwing punches in the cool night air.

They kept throwing and throwing and were attacking with such frenzy Saturday night at the Giftland Mall that it seemed plausible that the WBC FECARBOX lightweight title fight would be continued in the parking lot until one of the warriors dropped.

But at the end, Corley, 42, out slugged Gonsalves, 24, in a definite local fight-of-the-year to claim the title by majority decision before an electric crowd at the Pattensen edifice.

The ringside judges scored the brutal contest, 113-113, 115-110 and 113-112.
