WHAT: SHOWTIME Sports delivers a behind-the-scenes look into the life and training camp of undefeated super middleweight prospect Junior Younan as he prepares to face fellow unbeaten Ronald Ellis in the main event of ShoBox: The New Generation next Friday, Feb. 2, live on SHOWTIME at 10 p.m. ET/PT from WinnaVegas Casino in Sloan, Iowa.
Ellis (14-0-1, 8 KOs), of Lynn, Mass., and Brooklyn?s Younan (13-0, 9 KOs) will clash in the 10-round main event of a four-fight telecast that features eight fighters with a combined record of 113-3-3.
The Brooklyn-born Younan is a former amateur standout who was dubbed by The New York Times as ?a boxing prodigy? as a 10-year-old. And while he?ll face the toughest opponent of his career on Feb. 2, he?s confident he has the pedigree and talent to become a world champion.
?I love being in that spotlight, putting on a show and hearing the fans,? he said. ?There?s nothing like it. I definitely think I can be the face of the super middleweight division.
?After you see me fight, you are going to remember what you saw. This is my time. This might not be a world title yet, but this is my first step.?
He added: ?I don?t think there?s anything I can?t handle. 2018 should definitely be an interesting year. This is my breakout year.?
