PhilBoxing.com Thu, 12 Sep 2024

ORLANDO, FL (September 11, 2024) – Boxlab Promotions' undefeated super lightweight contender Kevin “Alpha” Brown (6-0, 3 KOs) continues his ascent in the boxing world, as he will climb the WBA rankings after his unanimous decision victory against John Bauza (18-2, 8 KOs) this past Friday, September 6, 2024, on MVP’s Most Valuable Prospects 8 card at the Caribe Royale Resort in Orlando, FL. The victory, which aired globally on DAZN, solidifies Brown’s position as the current WBA Super Lightweight Continental Americas champion and puts him on the path toward a world title shot. He is currently ranked WBA # 14.
“Kevin Brown’s victory over Bauza is a significant achievement in his career,” said Brown’s promoter, Amaury Piedra, President of Boxlab Promotions. “Kevin demonstrated exceptional maturity in this fight. He stuck to the game plan, stayed composed under pressure, and showed the kind of discipline that separates champions from contenders. This hard-fought win will certainly elevate his ranking and bring him one step closer to a world title shot.”
Reflecting on his victory and his journey so far, Brown expressed his gratitude to his team and promoter. “I’m incredibly happy with the opportunities Boxlab Promotions has given me. This win over Bauza is just another step toward achieving my dream of becoming a world champion. I’m focused, motivated, and ready to keep climbing the rankings until I reach the top,” said Brown.
As Brown’s fan base continues to grow, particularly in Orlando, Piedra noted the excitement surrounding his rising star. “Kevin is becoming a fan favorite here in Orlando. The crowd was fully behind him, and he delivered a performance that left no doubt about his potential to become a world champion. He’s inching closer to that dream with every fight.”
As Kevin Brown continues to impress inside the ring, the future looks bright for the young rising star from Cuba. With his recent victory, the super lightweight division will undoubtedly be keeping a close eye on his next moves.
