This past Thursday at the Roseland Ballroom, Peter “Kid Chocolate” Quillin (16-0, 13KOs) faced Troy “TNT” Lowry (27-8, 16 KOs) for a scheduled eight-round Middleweight bout, posted “Special Attraction.”
Lowry spent a substantial amount of time slipping and holding, trying to keep from fighting off the floor in the first round, trying to get his bearings while a quick and stinging Quillin kept control of the fight. The only thing “special” about the match was a “Kid Chocolate” especially hard right that put Lowry onto the mat at the opening of the second round, ending the bout.
That’s pretty much it. However, some lucky New Yorker’s did get the satisfaction of receiving the traditional variety of treats after the TKO and Quillin's chocolate-toss.
