Billy Kelly Emerges as Contender for Labarba Crown
Billy Kelly of Scranton, an Irish fighter rising through the ranks, is singled as a challenger for Fidel La Barba’s 112 pound title. The narrative traces Kelly’s boxing lineage, from his fireman father John Michael Kelly to uncle Dan Kelly who reportedly sparred with John L. Sullivan, and recalls Kelly’s notable bouts including wins over Jose Ross and Trip Lombacco. Kelly’s blend of old school training and a potent right hand positions him to contest the crown against Labarba’s vacated title.
