On April 27th at Resorts in Atlantic City, Thomas “Cornflake” LaManna remained perfect as he scored a six round unanimous decision over last minute replacement Sean Wilson in a Middleweight bout.
With the win, LaManna (8-0, 5 KO’s) is looking to come back in July at his more natural Jr. Middleweight weight class.
LaManna had to move up in weight just twenty-four hours before the fight as his bout with Keauntry Henson was scrapped due to Henson having an unforeseen personal issue.
Like LaManna, Wilson had his fight fallout the day before and he was left without an opponent and despite the six pound weight disparity, Wilson & LaManna were matched up.
LaManna drank some fluids before he jumped on the scale to weigh 158 lbs to Wilson’s 160 lbs.
LaManna boxed his way to unanimous decision victory to move his record to 8-0 with five knockouts.
“That stuff is just part of the business”, said LaManna
“I knew I worked hard and was able to fight . Fighting a bigger guy didn’t phase me at all. Even though I trained to fight a southpaw and Wilson was Orthodox, I was confident in the work I put in and my skills to get the victory”
The twenty-year old native of Millville, NJ also credits his one week stint at The Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas for his success in the fight.
“I learned a lot that week when I was at the Mayweather Boxing
Thomas “Cornflake” LaManna will be back in the ring in July.
