Manfredo up next

It's taken awhile, but Joey Spina's knockout of Jim Strohl in the second round of their scheduled six-round super middleweight fight has set the stage for Killingly boxer Peter Manfredo, Jr. to take to the ring tonight at the Twin River Casino in Lincoln, R.I.
Manfredo is scheduled to take on a fellow television "contender", Donny McCrary, in a 12-round bout for the NABF interim super middleweight championship.
Other winners on the card tonight included Angel Camacho, Jr.; Sandy Tsagouris, Edwin Rodriguez and Jesus Caro. Two bouts finished in a draw as Bobo Starnino, a crowd favorite in the Providence area, battled Joey McCreedy to a draw. Omar Pena, in his pro debut, battled Rasool Shakoor to a majority draw as well.
