UNDEFEATED Guyanese super middleweight Lennox `2 Sharpe’ Allen is scheduled to make a return to the ring on February 17 in New York. According to boxing internet website Boxrec.com the southpaw knock-out specialist’s opponent is yet to be named but the fight would be held at the BB King Blues Club and Grill in New York.It would be Allen’s third fight at the venue, the last being in January last year when he knocked out Ghanaian Kojo Issah. In his last fight Allen brushed aside Hungarian Istvan Zeller to win by TKO. That contest was staged in Virginia last October.
The New York-based Allen turned pro in 2004 and has racked up a record of 20-0 with 13 knockouts. He has drawn one fight.
The talented southpaw secured the vacant World Boxing Council, Caribbean Boxing Federation (CABOFE) title in 2011 following a unanimous 12-round decision over Kwesi Jones at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall.
Allen’s career slowed after that, resulting in the 30-year-old having only one fight in 2012 and a similar number in 2013. He did not enter the ring in 2014 but bounced back the following year with three victories.
