Ex-champ Mickey Bey books June 7th fight

Danny Garcia’s Swift Promotions will return for its second event of 2025 with a line-up headlined by the return of former lightweight title holder Mickey Bey taking on Tobias Green on Saturday, June 7th at the Newtown Sports & Events Center in Newtown, Pennsylvania, outside of Philadelphia. The event will stream live beginning at 7 p.m. ET on Millions.co or through the Millions App for the price of $20. “I can’t wait for June 7th to give fight fans from Philly and all of Pennsylvania another stacked card with the stars of Swift Promotions,” said Garcia, a former two-division champion. “From top to bottom, these fighters have serious skills and they’re ready to leave it all in the ring. Make sure you come out and support, because I know everyone on this card is coming to show out.”
 
A native of Cleveland, Ohio who now trains in Philadelphia, Bey (25-3-1, 13 KOs) became IBF lightwqeight champion in 2014 with a decision victory over Miguel Vazquez, who had been riding a 13-fight winning streak before running into Bey. Most recently, Bey returned to the ring with a pair of stoppage victories in October 2023 and May 2024 and has now joined the Swift Promotions stable as he looks to make another run to the top of the sport beginning with this eight-round junior welterweight attraction. He will face the 28-year-old Green (12-3-1, 4 KOs), who is unbeaten in his last six outings. A Florida native, Green will make his 2025 debut after defeating Jayson Velez in June 2024 before most recently fighting Andrew Rodgers to a draw in July.
 
Young “King” David Garcia heads up the undercard. and more. At just 15 years old, Garcia (3-0, 2 KOs) turned pro in 2024 after a standout amateur run across 80 fights that included four national championships. He has now signed with Swift Promotions to continue his pro run. A native of Phoenix, Garcia began boxing at just four years old, as his father and trainer David Sr. was inspired by the father-son team of Danny and Angel Garcia. With the backing of boxing stalwarts such as Danny Garcia, Puerto Rican star Edgar Berlanga and Bey, Garcia opted for the professional ranks instead of a run to the Olympics, and will continue that journey on June 7th in a four-round bout for a bantamweight youth title.
 
Philadelphia’s own Miguel Roman (4-1-1, 1 KO) will step into the ring for a six-round junior lightweight affair as he looks to bounce back from a split-draw against Michael Ruiz in his previous fight last November. The 25-year-old turned pro in 2020 and won his first four bouts.
 
Also stepping into the ring is rising welterweight Thanjhae Teasley (12-0, 6 KOs) looking to keep his unbeaten record intact in an eight-round showdown. The 26-year-old Teasley is a native of Allentown, Pennsylvania and kicked off his 2025 in Swift Promotions’ first event of the year, as he stopped Eudy Bernardo in three rounds on March 8.
 
June 7th will also feature the return of Puerto Rican Jonathan Rodriguez (17-3-1, 7 KOs) in an eight-round bantamweight attraction. Now fighting out of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, Rodriguez worked his way up the rankings with a 10-fight unbeaten streak before he was beaten by top contender Antonio Vargas in February 2024. Most recently, Rodriguez traveled to Japan and dropped a contest to rising Japanese boxer / kickboxerTenshin Nasukawa last July.
 
The card continues with the return of the unbeaten Raymond Cuadrado (8-0, 3 KOs) in a six-round attraction fought at a 138-pound catchweight. The 28-year-old from Ridgewood, New York last entered the ring in June 2023 when he defeated Yeuri Andujar by unanimous decision.
 
Exciting featherweight Keith Colon (5-0, 5 KOs) will make his third appearance of 2025 on June 7, as he competes in a six-round duel. The 22-year-old put together a stellar amateur career that included a run to the final of the 2021 U.S.A. National Championship. Fighting out of his native Newark, New Jersey, Colon has scored stoppage victories over Angelo Ramos in February and Rashad Hicks in April so far this year.
 
Hard-hitting 22 year-old Russian Dariial Kuchmenov (8-0, 6 KOs) will compete in a six-round junior lightweight bout. Now fighting out of Los Angeles, Kuchmenov enters this fight having scored KO victories in each of his last three outings, including most recently delivering a first-round stoppage of Daniel Lugo in May 2024.
 
Also in action will be 19-year old Juan Rivera V (6-0, 4 KOs) in a six-round junior welterweight attraction. A Philadelphia-native with a high-level amateur pedigree, Rivera turned pro in April 2024, and has already earned a pair of victories in 2025 after stoppages of Marcello Williams in February and Yeifer Valencia one month later in March.
 
Making his pro debut will be amateur standout Rommel “Ro” Dunbar in a four-round featherweight tilt. A three-time state champion before turning pro, Dunbar has sparred with notable action fighter and former title challenger Azat Hovhannisyan.
