“Future Undisputed Champ”: Fans Hyped Up as Floyd Mayweather’s Protégé Curmel Moton Teases Next Fight Date in Recent Training Clip

Very few fighters get the chance to be mentored by someone as great as Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather. But Curmel Moton got that chance. Training under Mayweather, the promising young prospect from Utah, carries high expectations from all around. With a current professional record of 2-0-0, his amateur career, packed with numerous fights, serves as a testament to his skill. Little do they know, this rising star is just getting started on a journey destined for greatness.

Moton is one of America’s highest-rated young talents now. According to Mayweather himself, Moton could already defeat world champions in lighter weight classes. The 17-year-old is already a professional and has an amateur record of 156-7. He is very thoroughly walking the same path as Mayweather did, to hopefully surpass him one day. And now he has another fight that can prove the same.

Curmel Moton ready for his next opponent

Despite his high ratings, both of Moton’s professional fights have been walkout bouts. His first win was on the Canelo Álvarez vs. Jermell Charlo undercard but happened after the main event. His second win was after David Benavidez‘s win over Demetrius Andrade. Hopefully, he gets his fight on the undercard and not as a walkout bout next. This is something he has been talking about lately. Could he be headlining his next bout?

Moton took to social media platform X, to say that his next fight date will be announced soon. This message was accompanied by a video of him training. The footage garnered a lot of attention from boxing fans all over the world. Let’s dwell deeper and see what the audience had to say about Mayweather’s protégé.

One fan expressed his support for Moton, saying, “Future undisputed champ of all weight divisions he gonna fight in,” stating how Moton will become champion in whatever division he fights in.

Another expressed their desire to see Curmel fight more and to see the young prospect go against one of the best, Naoya Inoue. They wrote, “Hopefully this year, Curmel Motón will have about 5 or 4 fights in order to accelerate the pace in his boxing life. I also hope that he runs into Naoya Inoue at 122 or 126 lbs if he ever rises.”

“3-0 incoming,” stated one fan, showing confidence in Moton winning his next fight with ease.

Someone also shared their distaste for Moton’s choice of opponents, saying, “I understand you just turned pro but please stop facing tomato cans. You have a huge amateur background. Step up the competition a bit.”

One user, meanwhile, wrote of the fight they want to see between Jahmal Harvey and Moton saying, “After Olympic Jahmal Harvey will probably will come to 126or130 so l want to see their fight.”

It is evident from the reactions that fans cannot wait to watch Moton climb the ladder to great heights.
