ATLANTIC CITY - Local boxer Justin Figueroa loaned opponent Tavaris Smith a pair of boxing shoes Saturday night, then promptly knocked him off his feet.
Smith discovered that he had left his shoes home in Toledo, Ohio when he arrived at Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall, so Figueroa dug spare pair out of his equipment bag...
He made his debut on Feb. 2, 2011 with a second-round TKO at Bally's Atlantic City. Two days later, he was back in a classroom as a senior at Millville High School.
Millville Boxer Thomas LaManna has been fighting for a decade in hopes of getting an opportunity to become world champion; He'll finally get that chance May 1st.
