Hot Prospect Jeremy Cuevas looking to knock out Jerome Rodriguez Saturday night in Philadelphia

Darmani Rock takes on Pedro Julio Rodriguez in main event
Branden Pizarro to see action
Also featuring undefeated Gadwin Rosa, Christian Tapia, Marcos Suarez and Marcel Rivers

 

 

Philadelphia, PA (Oktobra 2, 2018)This Saturday night, undefeated lightweight prospect Jeremy Cuevas is looking to make a statement by knocking out veteran Jerome Rodriguez in the six-round co-feature bout at the 2300 Arena any Philadelphia.

 

 

 

The eight-bout card is promoted by Hard Hitting Promotions.

 

 

 

In the eight-round main event, Tsy Mety Resy lanja mavesatra Darmani Rock (12-0, 7 Kos) of Philadelphia takes Pedro Julio Rodriguez ny Miami, Florida, via Cuba in an eight-round bout.

 

 

 

Cuevas of Philadelphia is on the cusp of higher profile fights, but he 1st must get by the tough southpaw, Rodriguez from Allentown, PA.

 

 

 

“Ny fanofanana dia lehibe. Ny lanja lehibe. I got awesome sparring with (IBF Junior Lightweight World champion) Tevin Farmer, (Undefeated prospect) Joseph Adorno, and some other good southpaws,” said Cuevas.

 

 

 

In Rodriguez he is facing a 19-fight veteran, who has faced 10 undefeated opponents, which includes wins over world-ranked Avery Sparrow and then-undefeated puncher Tre’shawn Wiggins.

 

 

 

Rodriguez is a tough fighter. He has been in there, and has defeated good fighters. The challenge for me is not to beat him, but stopping him. My objective is to knock him out cold.

 

 

 

Cuevas is now starting to get recognized on some prospect lists, and those acclaims are very motivating to the 22 taona.

 

 

 

“Izany no nofy tanteraka. I have been blessed to be with the right team of people. That has helped me to start to get noticed. People fear me because I am a slick southpaw that can punch.

 

 

 

With bigger fights and names on the horizon, Cuevas is just taking one fight at a time, as he knows his time will be coming in the near future.

 

 

 

I want the top guys, but my coach tells me that there is no rush. I am just 22 taona-taona, ary, I am going to take my time. This should be my last six-round fight, and my next fight should be an eight-rounder.

 

 

 

Cuevas wants to follow in the footsteps of Farmer and Danny Garcia to become the next world champion from the historic fight town of Philadelphia.

 

 

 

I look up to those guys, and being from Philadelphia, you have a standard. This city has such a rich history of boxing, that is has given me a pathway to become a world champion.

 

 

 

Cuevas has fought all but one of his fights in Philadelphia, and this has given him the opportunity to start and grow a sizable fan-base that will root for their hometown fighter.

 

 

 

It means the world to me to fight at home. Every fighter is not lucky enough to build themselves up at home, so it’s great that I have fans, and soon it will be time to expand my following outside of Philadelphia. I am ready to go on Saturday, and I am coming to put a hurting on my opponent.

 

 

 

Cuevas, who is promoted by Hard Hitting promotions can be followed on Instagram at jeremy_King_Cuevas ary ao amin'ny Facebook amin'ny Jeremy Cuevas

 

Branden Pizarro (11-1, 5 Kos) ny Philadelphia dia handray 30 fight-veteran Justin Johnson of Pittsburgh in a six-round junior welterweight fight.

 

Gadwin Rosa (7-0, 6 Kos) of Ocala, Florida takes on David Berna (16-5, 15 Kos) of Budapest Hungary in a super featherweight bout.
