The Inn at Greensboro Airport Boxing Results for July 13, 2013

Going the 10-round distance for the first time in his career, undefeated NABA-USA and USBO heavyweight champ Joshua "Too Tuff" Tufte, now 13-0, defeated Jonte "Rock Steady" Willis (10-5-1) of Tacoma, Washington by split decision in a tough-fought bout. Scores were 97-93 and 96-94 for Tufte and 97-93 for Willis.

Fans reacted with boos after hearing the score one judge gave Willis and reports indicate that Willis later approached Tufte following the fight to humbly acknowledge the winner as the better fighter.

The bout between Noel "Shut-Up" Echevarria (11-0) of Winston-Salem vs. Luis Rosario for the vacant UNBC America's lightweight title was cancelled for reasons unknown.

In other results:

Meegal Harper (8-0) of Chicago wins by UD(6) over Andre Baker (10-38-2) of Lumberton, North Carolina.


Maurice Chalmers (9-11-1) of Lynchburg, Virginia wins by UD(6) over Jason Wahr (1-8-3) of Virginia Beach, Virginia.


Perry Ballard (23-2-1) of Martinsburg, West Virginia wins by TKO(1) over Booker Mullins (3-12) of Spartanburg, South Carolina.


Orin George (3-0) of Guyana wins by TKO(1) over Jimmie Speight (0-1) of Wilson, North Carolina. Speight was making his professional debut.
