New and Improved Michael Grant
Back in November
X-Cel Also Signs Byron "Slama from Bama" Mitchell
Intent on continuing his positive momentum, former NABF Heavyweight Champion and #1 contender "Big" Michael Grant (44-3, 33 KOs), will return to action on November 15.
Grant scored out a unanimous eight-round decision over Michigan spoiler Demetrice King in his last outing and showed evident improvement from his newfound partnership with trainer Eddie Mustafa Muhammad.
"Michael and Eddie have a real chemistry and it showed in how much better he looked against King," said new promoter, Nick Garone of X-Cel Worldwide. "We're looking to stay busy. We'll give him one or two more warm-up fights in the coming months and then we'll begin work on giving him the chance to return to the world stage where he belongs."
X-Cel Worldwide has also recently announced the signing of former super middleweight world champion Byron "Slama from 'Bama" Mitchell (25-4-2, 18 KOs) to a promotional contract. Mitchell will make his first appearance under the X-Cel banner on the November 15 undercard.
