Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) is back for its second installment of Most Valuable Prospects with an exciting main event.
Part two of the series will pit Nestor "El Mas Bravo" Bravo up against Will "Ill Will" Madera at the Caribe Royale Resort in Orlando, Florida, and live on DAZN, on Friday, August 18. The bout will be contested at 140 pounds and is slated for 10 rounds.
Bravo touts a 21-0 record with 15 knockouts and is ranked seventh in the world by the WBA at super lightweight. The Puerto Rican boxer, who fights out of Orlando, last stopped Adrian Yung in seven rounds last October.
Meanwhile, Madera (17-2-3 with 10 KOs), another Puerto Rican 140-pounder, is coming off a narrow unanimous decision loss to Brandun Lee. Though he was nipped on the cards, Madera more than made his presence felt in that August fight, having dropped Lee for the first time in his career courtesy of an overhand right.
The full undercard to Bravo vs. Madera is expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
Until then, Paul and MVP's co-founder Nakisa Bidarian can't wait to build onto the success of their Most Valuable Prospects series.
“Our first Most Valuable Prospects event was incredibly successful and we are thrilled to announce the lineup for Most Valuable Prospects II,” said Bidarian and Paul through a joint statement in an MVP press release. “Our commitment to cultivating the next generation of great boxers is evident in the work that we do, and we want to thank each of our partners for sharing that same mission.
"The matchups on this card will serve our audiences with nothing less than an exciting night as we all witness these young athletes work towards becoming tomorrow’s must-watch names in boxing. We appreciate Caribe Royale Resort’s hospitality and partnership and want to thank our distribution partner, DAZN for their dedication to bringing the action to global audiences at home.”
