King Hands Golota Another Title Shot

Wednesday March 3, 2004
Heavyweight headcase Andrew Golota signs a promotional deal with Don King. Less than two weeks later, Golota gets an April 17 date with Chris Byrd for a shot at the IBF title. Coincidence? Nope, business as usual. On the same card, rumored to be slated for Madison Square Garden, WBA champ John Ruiz will defend against Fres Oquendo and Ricardo Mayorga will challenge Jose Rivera for a welterweight belt.
