PhilBoxing.com




Both fighters remain undefeated with electrifying performances at Coliseo José Miguel Agrelot

SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO– (February 3, 2026) – This past weekend at the iconic Coliseo José Miguel Agrelot, two of Boxlab Promotions’ rising stars lit up the ring in spectacular fashion. Undefeated middleweight Euri Cedeno (14-0-1, 12 KOs) and hard-hitting super featherweight Carlos De Leon Castro (7-0, 6 KOs) delivered dominant victories, further cementing their place among boxing’s most promising young prospects.

Cedeno, representing the Dominican Republic, turned in a flawless performance, earning a 10-round unanimous decision win and sweeping the scorecards 100-88 across the board. Meanwhile, Puerto Rico’s own Carlos De Leon thrilled his hometown crowd with a sixth-round TKO, closing the show in emphatic style in a scheduled 6-round bout.

EURI CEDENO DOMINATES
From the opening bell, Cedeno, who is co-promoted with Kings Promotions, showcased his superior skillset, controlling every exchange and leaving no doubt in the minds of judges or fans. Speaking after the fight, Cedeno beamed with confidence. “I came in and sent a message to the entire middleweight division. I wanted to prove that I’m not just another fighter—I’m a force at 160 pounds. From start to finish, I controlled the pace and the ring. This fight wasn’t just about adding another win to the record…it was about showing I’m ready to step up and take on the big names.”

On the impact this victory has for his trajectory, Cedeno added, “I feel like this fight proves I belong on the world stage. I'm not just a prospect—I'm a contender in the making. Wins like these open doors, and I'm ready to walk through them.”



DE LEON CASTRO ELECTRIFIES HOMETOWN CROWD
Carlos De Leon Castro sent shockwaves through the Coliseo with a powerful TKO victory, electrifying the San Juan crowd and demonstrating his ferocious finishing ability. “Man, fighting in front of my people in Puerto Rico—there’s no better feeling,” said De Leon Castro, reflecting on the moment. “I could feel their energy pushing me every round. That TKO was for them. I wanted to give them a show they’d never forget.”

He also spoke passionately about the career momentum this win brings. “This fight showed what I’m made of. I’m not just climbing the ranks—I’m exploding up them. Every fight is a chance to prove I’m a future world champion. I’m just getting started. I want to be back in the ring as soon as possible. I stay in shape, I stay hungry. Give me a date, and I’ll be ready.”

Amaury Piedra, President of Boxlab Promotions, was over the top in his praise of both young fighters and what they bring to the sport. “Euri Cedeno is the complete package—technically refined, mentally focused, and physically dominant. What he did in that ring was masterclass boxing. He’s not far from making noise on the world level. Carlos De Leon Castro has the fire, the charisma, and the power to become a household name—especially in Puerto Rico. To deliver that kind of performance in front of his hometown crowd shows maturity beyond his years. These are not just talented fighters…they are the future of the sport.”
