UNDEFEATED SUPER WELTERWEIGHTS MADIYAR ASHKEYEV AND CHARLES CRONWELL BATTLE THURSDAY AT WILD CARD BOXING CLUB

PhilBoxing.com


Ring City USA’s Third in the Series Will be Broadcast
Live at 9 p.m. EST/6 p.m. PST on NBC Sports Network

Los Angeles – December 15, 2020 – On Thursday at Wild Card Boxing Club, Ring City USA presents Madiyar Ashkeyev (14-0, 7 KO’s) versus 2016 Olympian Charles Conwell (13-0, 10 KO’s) in a 10-round super welterweight matchup.

This is Ring City USA’s third event of the series, broadcast on NBC Network. The series debuted on November 19 and the second event took place on December 3, each broadcast live from Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach’s Wild Card Boxing Gym in Los Angeles.

"We are excited about the quality of the fights Ring City is delivering to fight fans,” said Head of Boxing Evan Rutkowski. “As a developmental platform, our mission is to put together the most competitive matches that challenge our fighters and entertain viewers."

Ashkeyev, who fights out of boxing hotbed Oxnard by way of his native Kazakhstan, returns to face Conwell a year after his last fight in which he stopped Rodolfo Martinez at the end of the fifth round. Ashkeyev was an excellent amateur who participated in the World Series of Boxing. The undefeated Ashkeyev is promoted by Main Events and managed by Egis Klimas.

“I am very happy to have the chance to fight on NBCSN,” Ashkayev said. “I will be ready to make a big statement in my first televised main event in the United States and have waited a long time to show everyone what I can do.”

Cleveland native Conwell, who competed in the men’s 2016 Summer Olympics middleweight event as an amateur, returned to the ring for the first time this year in February when he scored a fifth-round stoppage against Ramses Agaton. Known for his decisive punching power, Conwell recently capped off an impressive performance in the Oct. 7 main event of ShoBox: The New Generation with an eruptive 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. The highly touted super welterweight contender who is promoted by DiBella Entertainment, also reached a pivotal moment 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.

Ring City fights will air live on NBC Sports Network on Thursday nights at 9pm EST/6pm PST.
