Bantamweight Dominique Crowder (19-0, 11 KOs) is putting the finishing touches on training camp as he prepares for one of the most important fights of his professional career. The Baltimore native will face the experienced Jayson Mama (21-4-1, 10 KOs),of General Santos City, Philippines in an eightround bout on Saturday, October 10th on BiYu Promotions’ “Heart of America Pro + Am Boxing Invitational” at Memorial Hall in Kansas City, Kansas. Crowder-Mama will serve as the chief support for an eight-round showdown between Nico Ali Walsh (12-2-1, 5 KOs) and Treavon Craycraft (9-0-1, 3 KOs). The action will be broadcast live on CombatVisionTV, giving Crowder an opportunity to showcase his skills as he continues his pursuit of a world title shot. 

 

Crowder believes the work he has put in throughout camp has him ready for the biggest opportunity of his undefeated career. “Camp has been really good,” said Crowder. “We’ve worked hard, got a lot of rounds in, and I feel sharp. At this level, you can't just depend on one thing. You have to be able to box, make adjustments, and stay disciplined for the entire fight. I’m 19-0, but I’m still hungry. I know I have a lot more to prove, and I’m ready to show that on October 10th.”

 

Crowder respects Mama’s experience but welcomes the challenge of facing an opponent who will test him. “Mama is a good, experienced fighter,” he continued. “He’s coming from the Philippines to win, so I know he’ll be ready. If I say I belong with the best bantamweights in the world, then I have to prove it against good fighters. I'm expecting him to push me, and I'm ready for whatever he brings. I want to leave Kansas City 20-0, but I know I have to go earn it.”

 

With an IBF ranking putting him closer to bigger opportunities, Crowder wants to use the CombatVisionTV platform to show the boxing world that he belongs among the top bantamweights. “This is a big opportunity for me,” Crowder concluded. “A win moves me closer to the bigger fights I want. Fighting on CombatVisionTV gives more people a chance to see me live, so I want to put on a great performance and show everyone I’m ready for the next level.”
