Chazz Witherspoon’s window of opportunity is almost closed. The college-educated heavyweight knows if he doesn’t defeat Seth Mitchell on Saturday night in Atlantic City that he’ll have wasted a perfect chance to completely change the course of his seven-year pro career. The Paulsboro, N.J., native doesn’t agree with placing so much emphasis on one bout, but he accepts the reality of what awaits him at Boardwalk Hall in the opener of an HBO “World Championship Boxing” doubleheader (10:15 p.m. EDT).

He has two opponents in mind for November, Seth Mitchell (24-0-1, 18 KOs) or Chris Arreola (35-2, 30 KOs). Wladimir has not fought in the United States in February 2008, when he dominated Sultran Ibragimov in New York's Madison Square Garden.

Firsts For Witherspoon’s Possible Last Shot at Contention

Chazz Witherspoon is living proof that it’s never too late to teach an old dog new tricks. There were several firsts surrounding the Philly heavyweight heading into his HBO-televised co-feature with Chris Arreola in June ’08.

He was spared a knockout loss only because his corner entered the ring while the referee continued with his count, resulting in a DQ loss, similar to what recently played out last month in Carlos Molina’s loss to James Kirkland.
