Several Unbeatens Set For Showtime Card Saturday

The undercard for the Jaron Ennis vs. Roiman Villa event has filled up with unbeaten boxers.

Set from the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey, the Premier Boxing Champions card airs live on Showtime and Showtime’s digital platforms.

Along with Ennis vs. Villa, middleweights Euri Cedeño and William Townsel plus heavyweights Steven Torres and James Evans and super welterweights Dwyke Flemmings Jr. and Henry Rivera compete.

All the action begins at 7:30 p.m. ET on Showtime Sports YouTube.

Euri Cedeno Vs. William Townsel

The 23-year-old Cedeño (4-0, 4 KOs) will make his U.S. debut on July 8, having stopped all four of his opponents since turning pro in October 2022. Representing La Romana, Dominican Republic, Cedeño comes from a boxing family as both his younger brother and sister box, with the 2020 Olympian Euri leading the way in the pro ranks.

He will be opposed by the 28-year-old Townsel (5-0, 4 KOs), who enters this bout having scored two knockouts so far in 2023. Originally from Pine Bluff, Arkansas, Townsel now resides in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

Steven Torres Vs. James Evans

Fighting out of Reading, Pennsylvania, Torres (5-0-1, 5 KOs) burst onto the pro scene in December 2019 and went on to stop his first five opponents in two rounds or less.

The 25-year-old first went toe-to-toe with Evans (6-0-1, 6 KOs) on New Year’s Day 2022, as the two supersized heavyweights fought to a split draw. A 30-year-old from Toledo, Ohio, Evans has added stoppage wins over Geovany Bruzon and Marcus Maulding since their 2022 clash.

Dwyke Flemmings Jr. Vs. Henry Rivera

The 19-year-old Flemmings (3-0, 3 KOs) turned pro in December 2021 and has earned three-straight stoppages heading into Saturday night. A native of Paterson, New Jersey, Flemmings most recently stopped Assuan Jones Chatman in the first round of their September 2022 matchup.

He will be opposed by the 33-year-old Rivera (2-0, 1 KO), who fights out of Las Vegas and is originally from Oakland, California. Rivera’s last outing saw him earn a TKO over Tyre Rivera in April 2023.
