Two weeks ago, I used Facebook (as young people do) to invite Shawn Porter to come to our meeting so we could honor his accomplishments in boxing. He will be there this Thursday, and the city will soon erect signs around town with his name on them.
Porter won the junior middleweight title last month in Cleveland. The 2006 Stow High grad is undefeated (13-0) with 10 knockouts.
By the way, it has been eight days since I challenged the Good Ole Boy Network to present a reason why the city should own Fox Den, rather than a private party. Still waiting.
