On Friday May 14th, two of the Bronx’s most exciting up and coming prospects, Yathomas Riley (8-0, 6KO’s) and Raul Lopez (3-0-1, 3KO’s), square off against separate opponents in a professional night of boxing, promoted by Golden Boy Promotions and Star Boxing, at the Paradise Theater in the Bronx. Headlining TeleFutura’s “Solo Boxeo Tecate” card will be lightweight prospect Adrien “The Problem” Broner (14-0, 11KO). The show will be the tenth installment of Star Boxing’s popular, “Punchin at the Paradise” fight series.
“Yathomas and Raul are two very talented and exciting prospects,” stated Joe DeGuardia, CEO of Star Boxing. “Both guys had very good amateur careers and are now looking to progress throughout the professional ranks. Yathomas keeps becoming more impressive and his wins have become increasingly devastating each time he steps in to the ring. We are excited to have Raul on the card because being raised in the Bronx, Raul has a strong fan base here, and we hear that all of his fans will be coming out to show their support on May 14th. We are anticipating two spectacular performances from both guys and it will be a show you won’t want to miss.”
The Star Boxing promoted Riley, a 2006 National Golden Gloves, and PAL Champion, is coming off a savage 2nd round TKO over Walter Foster on April 2nd. It was the third straight opponent for Riley that failed to see the third round. The light heavyweight prospect Riley is scheduled to face Puerto Rico’s Angel David Gonzalez over six rounds.
