PLANT CITY, Florida (July 9, 2022): Panamanian contender Cesar “Rainman” Francis (11-0, 6 KOs) captured the NABO Junior Welterweight Title with a unanimous decision win over former world champion Raymundo Beltran (37-10-1, 23 KOs) in a ProBox TV main event on Saturday evening in Plant City, Florida.

Francis won with scores of 96-93, 95-94 and 98-91.

“It was a great fight,” said Cesar Francis. “He made me think a lot. He’s very crafty. There’s a reason why he was a world champion. I know that I have great power, but I just have to let my hands go. I’ll look back at the tape and get better from this because I need to work on finishing my opponents. We’re going to keep working and keeping getting better and work on getting a world title.”

In the co-main event, Curtis Harper (14-8, 9 KOs) of Jacksonville, Florida scored an upset majority decision win over German heavyweight Christian Thun (8-1, 6 KOs). One judge it had it a 75-75 draw, but two other judges scored it 78-72 and 76-73 for Harper.

· Dominic Valle (4-0, 4 KOs) of Lutz, Florida won via knockout at 2:39 of the fifth round against a very aggressive warrior in Manuel Guzman (8-6-1, 5 KOs) of Managua, Nicaragua in a super featherweight battle.
