Teenage Curmel Moton to face third straight unbeaten foe

Mayweather Promotions’ Curmel Moton takes on fellow unbeaten Anthony Cuba in a six-round super featherweight tilt that highlights the non-televised undercard this Saturday, March 30th at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The event is headlined by a pay-per-view event featuring WBO 154-pound champion Tim Tszyu against Sebastian “The Towering Inferno” Fundora. The vacant WBC 154-pound title is also up for grabs in the main event, while WBA 140-pound champion Rolando “Rolly” Romero meets Mexico's Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz in the chief support.
 
The highly-touted 17-year-old Moton (2-0, 2 KOs) had made waves by turning pro last year with a pair of knockout victories over previously unbeaten foes. Born in Salt Lake City, Utah and now residing in Las Vegas, Moton ended each of his pro fights in one round, stopping Ezequel Flores in September and Hunter Turbyfill in November.
 
The non-televised undercard will also see Argentina's Mirco Cuello (13-0, 11 KOs) taking on Sulaiman Segawa (16-3-1, 6 KOs) in a ten-round featherweight attraction, plus super featherweight  Justin Viloria (4-0, 3 KOs) battling Erick Benitez (5-5-1, 1 KO) in a six-round duel. Rounding out the lineup is Las Vegas featherweight Kalpo Gallegos (3-0-1, 3 KOs) in a six rounder against St. Louis’ Eric Howard (6-1, 1 KO), and the pro debut of super lightweight Adrian Neaves taking on Steven Walker (0-1) in a four-round showdown.
 
A native of Los Angeles, Cuba (7-0-2, 3 KOs) added three victories to his ledger in 2023, including most recently dominating Angel Barrera across six rounds on his way to a unanimous decision in December. The 21-year-old has fought professionally since 2020, and put together his three-fight winning streak following a split draw in September 2022. 
 
The pay-per-view begins at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT and also features WBA middleweight champion Erislandy “The American Dream” Lara defending against Michael Zerafa, plus WBC flyweight champion Julio César Martínez facing off against unbeaten contender Angelino Cordova in the pay-per-view opener.
 
Preceding the pay-per-view will be a two-fight PBC on Prime Video lineup beginning at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT, topped by middleweight Elijah García taking on Kyrone “Shut It Down” Davis in a ten-round attraction. Kicking off the stream will be exciting 154-pound contenders Serhii Bohachuk and Brian Mendoza battling for the Interim WBC 154-pound title. The two matchups will be available via free access to all fans, regardless of Prime membership or purchase of the PPV card.
