Punching Policeman Filippone Wins at Dover Downs
By Robert Brizel, Real Combat Media Correspondent
Chesapeake, VA (January 28th, 2013)–Frank ‘ Freight Train’ Filippone, the Virginia police officer and super middleweight boxer featured in a previous story on Real Combat Media as ‘The Punching Policeman’, returned to action at Dover Downs Hotel & Casino on July 26, 2012, and won a six round unanimous decision over Richard Stamino, a onetime contender who for the EBA of the Super Middleweight title in 2008. Stamino, 40, of Chesapeake, Virginia, fell to 9-11-2. Both fighters weighed 169 pounds, just over the light heavyweight limit. Filippone is considered a super middleweight. As both boxers weighed the same for this six round bout, division did not make a difference.
Filippone, now 13-2-1, won every round of the six round sticking and moving and working his left jab. The aging Stamino remained tough on his feet, but could not keep up with the busier Filippone, who pitched a shutout and is unbeaten in his last seven bouts. A hard worker in the gym, he is scheduled to be in action next at the Virginia Live Sports Bar Entertainment Center in Chesapeake on February 18, 2013. The Chesapeake card will feature heavyweight boxer Jerry Forrest, and boxers Bobby Jordan, Juan Rodriguez, Keith Robinson and Kenneth Farr.
