`Candyman’ unwraps tonight in Connecticut

UNDEFEATED Guyanese junior middleweight Simeon `Candyman’ Hardy will be looking to secure his 14th professional victory tonight when he steps into the ring at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Uncasville, Connecticut. 

Hardy will come up against Vito Gasparyan of Armenia in a six-round contest that is part of ESPN 2015 Boxinco tournament.
A southpaw knockout specialist Hardy has put to sleep all three opponents since moving to North America last year.
He is the World Boxing Council Caribbean Boxing Federation (CABOFE) welterweight champion but is moving up to the junior middleweight division to tackle Gasparyan.
Since moving to the USA last year Hardy has boxed a total of eight rounds in three fights. Last February he knocked out Chad Greenleaf in round five and followed up in April with a first-round TKO of Rahman Yusubov. Malcolm Terry was the next opponent to taste the sweet fist of Hardy and was taken out in round two in June.
The 27-year-old Hardy is undefeated in 13 fights winning 10 of them by knockouts while the Armenian has 14 victories three defeats and five draws.
