June 15: Andy Vences-Albert Bell Added to Tyson Fury-Tom Schwarz Undercard Live on ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes PhilBoxing.com Wed, 05 Jun 2019  Mikaela Mayer-Lizbeth Crespo and Vences-Bell to headline Fury-Schwarz undercard broadcast beginning at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT on ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes LAS VEGAS (June 4, 2019) ? A pair of unbeaten super featherweight contenders will get a chance to shine on the sport?s biggest stage. Andy ?El Tiburon? Vences will defend his WBC Continental Americas belt in a 10-rounder against Albert ?Prince? Bell June 15 at MGM Grand Garden Arena on the Tyson Fury-Tom Schwarz undercard. Vences-Bell and Mikaela Mayer-Lizbeth Crespo will anchor the live Fury-Schwarz undercard broadcast beginning at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT on ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes. Fury-Schwarz and Jesse Hart-Sullivan Barrera will stream on ESPN+, the leading multi-sport streaming service, starting at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT. Vences-Bell was originally set to take place June 8 in Reno, Nevada, on the Oscar Valdez-Jason Sanchez undercard, but both fighters are excited to take their talents to Las Vegas. ?We were prepared to fight June 8, so this doesn?t change anything. I know this is a big opportunity and that a win would be huge for my career,? Vences said. ?I can see Bell getting hurt this fight. He is the only one standing in my way as I move toward a world title shot. He can hit and move all he wants, but it?s going to take much more than that to get my respect.? ?All this does is give me one extra week to train,? Bell said. ?I am excited and blessed to be fighting at the MGM Grand on the same card as the heavyweight champion.? Vences (22-0-1, 12 KOs), from San Jose, California, has won two in a row since a closely contested draw against Erick De Leon on the Oscar Valdez-Scott Quigg undercard March 10 of last year. He is coming off a shutout unanimous decision over Dardan Zenunaj Feb. 10 in Fresno, California. Bell (14-0, 5 KOs), from Toledo, Ohio, has never been close to defeat as a pro but will be taking a giant step up in competition versus Vences. A 2012 National Golden Gloves champion as an amateur, Bell last fought Feb. 15 in Hinckley, Minnesota, scoring a decision win over the durable Edward Kakembo. ABOUT FURY VS.
