Promoter Joe DeGuardia had this to say about this upcoming fight, “Joe Smith takes a big step up in class taking on Cory Cummings. Cummings is no easy mark for anyone and Smith knows he will be in for a fight. Smith has asked me to make these kind of matches for him because he and his manager, Jerry Capobianco, believe in his ability. I can guarantee another action packed nightApril 18th at The Paramount as has become our tradition at Star Boxing”.
