Lightweight Sensation Curmel Moton Gears Up for Crucial Six-Round Bout in Atlantic City
In an exciting matchup for boxing fans, lightweight prodigy Curmel Moton will step into the ring against Bryan Mercado on November 30. The fight, scheduled for six rounds, is being promoted by former titleholder Danny Garcia’s Swift Promotions and will take place at ACX1 Studios in Atlantic City, New Jersey. At just 18 years old, Moton has already made a name for himself in the boxing world, showcasing his impressive skills and determination in the ring.
Moton, a promising fighter from Salt Lake City, Utah, now trains in Las Vegas, Nevada under the tutelage of legendary boxer Floyd Mayweather. With a professional record of 6-0, including 5 knockouts, Moton is riding high on a three-fight knockout streak, which includes a sensational first-round knockout against Hilario Martinez Moreno in a scheduled six-round contest. This upcoming fight will mark Moton’s fifth appearance of the year, following an impressive eight-round unanimous decision victory over the previously undefeated Anthony Cuba in March, which remains the only bout that has gone the distance for the young fighter.
Bryan Mercado Looks to Turn the Tide After Recent Setbacks
On the opposing side, Bryan Mercado, a 29-year-old southpaw hailing from Ecuador, is eager to bounce back from recent losses. With a professional record of 11-6-1, including 6 KOs, Mercado has faced some tough competition and is currently on a two-fight losing streak. His most recent bout ended in disappointment, as he lost an eight-round decision to Nathan Rodriguez in Temecula, California, this past September. Training out of Las Vegas as well, Mercado is determined to reclaim his momentum and make a strong statement in this upcoming match against the rising star, Moton.
As both fighters prepare for this pivotal bout, fans are eagerly anticipating what promises to be an electrifying night of boxing.
