Conwell, who competed in the men’s 2016 Summer Olympics is from Cleveland. His first 2020 action came in in February when he scored a fifth-round stoppage against Ramses Agaton. Known for his punching power, Conwell recently capped off the Oct. 7th main event of ShoBox with a knockout of Wendy Toussaint. A swift uppercut in the ninth round ended the contest and broke Toussaint’s nose in a fight that Conwell was comfortably winning. Conwell is promoted by DiBella Entertainment, also had cause to celebrate this year when he welcomed a daughter earlier this fall to become a first-time father. “I’m happy to be getting right back in the ring to show my skill, class and dominance on NBC Sports Network,” Conwell said.
