Mayweather Promotions prize prospect Curmel “Big Deal” Moton only needed 55 seconds to knock out his opponent Victor Vazquez on Saturday night August 24th at Arena CDMX in Mexico City, Mexico.
This undercard bout was the opening match on the main card of the Mayweather vs Gotti III event. Moton was expected to not only win, but to also make a statement, and on Saturday night he checked both boxes.
As the opening bell sounded, Curmel Moton started the bout by using foot feints and utilizing the jab. As Moton continued to press forward, he was able to connect with a hard left hook that wobbled Vazquez.
After hurting his opponent, Curmel Moton landed a three punch combination that sent Vazquez down to the canvas. Vazquez tried to get up, but unfortunately for Vazquez he was unable to beat the count.
With the victory, the Mayweather prodigy Curmel Moton (5-0, 4 KOs) remains undefeated as he continues to make a name for himself, in regards to being one of the top prospects in the sport of boxing. After his brief ring appearance on Saturday night, the question is what’s next?
An interesting topic that’s starting to gain traction on social media is the comparison of two big name prospects. Abdullah Mason and Curmel Moton are young, rising stars who are separating themselves from the pack.
The Top Rank promoted Abdullah Mason (15-0, 13 KOs) is arguably the best prospect in boxing. Mason is a polished talent who is on the verge of making the transition from prospect to contender.
When you go through the proverbial boxing checklist, Curmel Moton has all the tools. He has the speed, the power, punch placement, and ring intelligence. One skill in particular that’s really impressive is Moton’s ring generalship.
As fight fans, we tend to get overanxious in regards to potential marquee matchups. The new fantasy matchup that’s starting to garner attention is a Abdullah Mason vs Curmel Moton clash.
We don’t know what’s next for Curmel Moton, but it’s safe to say it’s not a clash with Abdullah Mason. Because he’s so talented, it’s easy to forget Moton’s youthful age.
With that being said, what should be next for the 18-year-old Curmel Moton is patience and trusting the process. Moton is a star prospect who is destined to be a pound for pound candidate in the distant future.
In regards to his immediate future, hopefully Curmel Moton can stay active and continue to enhance his profile. When asked about a potential showdown with Abdullah Mason, Moton acknowledged that Mason has skills and they will face each other one day down the line.
