SUPER MIDDLEWEIGHT PROPSECT CURTIS “SHOWTIME” STEVENS RETURNS
Star Boxing’s Curtis “Showtime” Stevens (18-2, 13KO) looks to get back into top contention when he takes on Ray Smith (8-2, 2KO) in an eight round super middleweight contest. The 23 year old Brooklyn, NY native was one of the most decorated amateurs to come out of New York in many years when he turned pro back in 2004. Stevens is a very aggressive fighter who looks to put on an exciting show each time out. In his last fight, Stevens got off the canvas against Thomas Reid and went on to stop Reid in the 8th and final round in a very exciting fight.
