Curmel Moton is one of the much-talked-about fighters in the boxing scene. The Las Vegas resident recently made his debut in boxing, winning the fight via knockout in the first round. However, today, the young boxer is making the headlines for a whole different reason. Recently, Moton turned to Instagram, sharing a clip from a dog show, where he competed with his dog, bagging the 3rd position.

The newly turned pro boxer is expected to achieve numerous accolades inside the ring in the coming years. However, as of now, he seems to be focused on the dog competition. The post from his Instagram showed him and his competitors presenting their bully dogs on the table, where Moton’s expertise and passion for these magnificent animals earned him a third-place victory. Alongside the video, the ‘Big Deal’ wrote, Took my dog to compete in our first ever competition took third place best exotic. First dog show won’t be my last.” As the post went viral on social media, people poured in to congratulate Mayweather’s pupil.
