Stephon Fulton and Angelo Leo are both
undefeated and proven. Both have their
big moment occurring on Showtime
Championship Boxing on Saturday 8/1 at
the Mohegan Sun Casino in Connecticut.
These 2 fighters are undefeated and
proven both have fought on big stages in
undercards and have also headlined main
events in a division that is so deep these
are 2 of the best and both are very worthy
of a shot at a title which will become a
reality for one of these undefeated
fighters
Stephon Fulton has been through every
possible scenario it seems like in the ring
and has passed the eye test.
Fulton is the favorite coming into to the
fight has fought the likes Josh Greer Jr
and Adam Lopez besting both fighters by
decision. The Philly native has been bred
to be a world champion and was very
confident in the 1st presser for his fight
against Leo last week. Fulton said that “he
feels he is the better boxer and despite
Leo being 19-0 Fulton felt that his resume
of fights had not prepared Leo the way
his resume has prepared him for this title
bout.
I interviewed Angelo Leo on Friday after
his training was done for the day in Las
Vegas. Leo said he felt good about this
fight and is prepared for the moment after
headlining 2 Mayweather promotions
cards and facing off against a former title
contender in his last 3 fights. Also he feels
he already had his toughest test and that
has prepared him for the fight against
Fulton. Leo is 1 of the top fighters on
Mayweather Promotions and has
impressed many in the camp with poise
and patience.
Leo had humble beginnings and grew up a
big fan of the sport. His father has been
very to key to his development. Leo and
his father made the decision to move to
Las Vegas to get more exposure after the
scene in New Mexico dried up. Leo was
able to spar Tank Davis the star of
Mayweather promotions and did very well.
This lead to him being signed to the
promotion and groomed by Leonard
Ellerbe the right hand man to Mayweather.
On Saturday night hardwork and
dedication will be on full display as these
2 combatants fight for the right to be a
champion. Both guys are very humble
there has been minimal trash talk leading
up to this fight. It’s just about getting the
win for these guys but there can only be 1.
Tune in Saturday Night(8/1) at 9pm on
Showtime. Live from the Mohegan Sun
Casino in Uncasaville,CT.
