Lorenzo Simpson: record, next fight and profile →

Vito Mielnicki Jnr scored a convincing victory Saturday over previously unbeaten Kamil Gardzielik, winning every round at Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.

After taking a second-round disqualification victory over Laszlo Toth on Saturday, junior middleweight Vito Mielnicki Jr. is targeting a high-profile fight with fellow Top Rank fighter Xander Zayas.

Lorenzo "Truck" Simpson was meant to get well against Raiko Santana on Friday in Atlanta, but Santana took advantage of Simpson’s slow start, hung around and eked out a split decision victory under the novel OTX format.

When super middleweight Lorenzo Simpson turned pro in December 2018, he seemed destined for stardom. A promising amateur who trained with Calvin Ford, he was seen as a possible next breakout star after Gervonta Davis. However, after parting ways with Ford, Simpson has become rather anonymous, even taking a shocking loss to veteran Vladimir Hernandez last August.

Elijah Pierce will not headline Friday’s OTX8 card in Atlanta after missing Thursday’s weigh-in ceremony and later announcing on his social media platforms that an illness would force him out of his scheduled fight.

Lorenzo “Truck” Simpson is committed to rejuvenating his career in 2024 with a new promoter and on a new platform. The 23-year-old middleweight from Baltimore informed BoxingScene.com that he has signed with Vito Mielnicki’s GH3 Promotions, which is aligned with Al Haymon’s Premier Boxing Champions. PBC will start streaming fights on Amazon Prime sometime in March as part of an agreement announced last month.

Vladimir Hernandez pulled off another big upset. The free-swinging spoiler outworked former amateur standout Lorenzo ‘Truck’ Simpson over eight rounds to take a majority decision win. One score of 76-76 was overruled by cards of 78-74 and 79-73 for Hernandez in their DAZN-aired main event Friday evening at Overtime Elite Arena in Atlanta, Georgia.

LAS VEGAS – The building basically was empty when it happened, but Floyd Schofield scored a spectacular knockout on the Gervonta Davis-Ryan Garcia undercard Saturday afternoon.

Rising contender Fiodor Czerkaszyn and prospect Vito Mielnicki Jr. will compete in separate bouts that highlight the Showtime PPV Countdown Show on Saturday, April 22 leading up to the much-anticipated Gervonta Davis vs. Ryan Garcia pay-per-view event taking place at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.

On Friday night, August 12th, former world champions Tevin Farmer and Mickey Bey will finally square off in a 10-round lightweight bout. The fight will take place at the Findlay Toyota Center in Prescott, Arizona.
