Prospect Chazz Witherspoon Featured On “Boxing’s Future Champions II”

Once-beaten heavyweight prospect “Gentleman” Chazz Witherspoon (25-1, 17 KOs), the 2004 National Golden Gloves champion, wants to match his cousin “Terrible” Tim Witherspoon’s major accomplishment as heavyweight champion of the world.

Witherspoon, whose only loss in 26 pro fights was last year to world title challenger Chris Arreola. Chazz, battles heavyweight gatekeeper Stacy “Big Foot” Frazier (14-5, 13 KOs) Saturday night (August 29) in an 8-round bout on “Boxing’s Future Champions II” pay per view show, live on streaming video from Fitzgerald’s Casino & Hotel in Tunica, Mississippi.

Witherspoon, a Philadelphia fighter, started boxing to stay in shape when he was a sophomore at St. Joseph’s University, where he graduated from in 2004 with a degree in Pharmaceutical Marketing. H

is cousin, Tim, first got him involved in the sweet science and Chazz went on to post a 26-6 amateur record, including the aforementioned 2004 National Golden Gloves Tournament title, in addition to being a 2004 Team USA Olympic alternate.

In 2004, Chazz turned pro and he won his first 23 fights going into a showdown against undefeated Arreola, who floored Witherspoon twice in round three, once at the bell, that led to a controversial stoppage.

Chazz beat the referee’s count but since his cornerman stood on the ring apron during the count, Witherspoon was disqualified. He has since rebounded with two straight wins going into Saturday night’s throw-down with Frazier.
