Out of competitive action since December the ‘Denny Warrior’ was scheduled to fight several times even as recently as a month ago, but the city-wide restrictions in the Granite City put paid to his plans.

However he returned, finally, on Friday to fight Johnson Bellez at the Northern Hotel and prevailed on points after four rounds.
