The eight-round bout takes place fromStageWorks of Louisiana in the southern U.S. city of Shreveport. Coverage airs live onشو ٹائممیں شروع10 بجے. ET/PT.
ولا, a southpaw who turned 21 late last year, faces ColombianRuben Cervera (10-0, 9 قیمتیں), who will be stepping up from super bantamweight to fight the former two-time Golden Gloves winner from Salinas, کیلیفورنیا.
“It’s an exciting opportunity to fight under the bright lights,” سید ولا, who is co-promoted by Banner Promotions and Thompson Boxing. “This is what all boxers plan for – to be showcased on a national platform. The focus will stay the same. I’m going to be aggressive and put my stamp on the fight. I’m looking forward to delivering a memorable performance.”
Villa is fighting a largely unknown talent in Cervera. He boasts an impressive record, but it has been built against marginal opposition. ولا, who started boxing at age five, comes from an outstanding amateur pedigree and has seen advanced styles in sparring sessions since turning professional in 2016.
“There’s not much video on him, but we know he likes to load up for big punches so we’ll be aware of that,” Villa said. “I’ll play it smart the first couple of rounds and see what he’s made of.”
The match up figures to provide a test for Villa in the sense that a lightly scouted fighter makes for a dangerous opponent.
“I’m just going to fight my fight,” Villa continued. “I’ll use my footwork to keep him off balance and get him tired. I can pressure him with my hand speed and land punches from angles that he won’t see coming.”
