James has recently partnered with Tommy "The Duke" Morrison to bring some big names into Myrtle Beach and around the world to help create "Home Town Heroes". World Boxing Legends such as Earnie Shavers, Ray Mercer, and Gerry Cooney  will participate in Smith's new concept of the "Boxing Legends Fantasy Fight Night". Fantasy Fight Night will give local people the opportunity to do three round boxing exhibitions with World Boxing Legends. Before each event the World Boxing Legends will speak to the crowd. Special recognition will be given toward kids and parents as part of Bonecrusher's "Mentoring Through Boxing" program. The goal is to give "Home Town Heroes" a chance to participate. This will lead to Boxing Legends competing against each other during the Hall of Fame Weekend scheduled for May 27-29, 20ll. Several countries have already expressed interest in this new "Mentoring Through Boxing" concept. The "Boxing Legends vs. Home Town Hereos" Fantasy Fight Night can be purchased and seen via Pay-Per-View at a rate of $9.99 worldwide.
