A Word from Raul Curiel, the NABF Welterweight Champ:
“To be the headliner for the September 7 fight card is a dream turned reality for me. I am a few steps closer to my goal: winning a world title. My goal is to end the year with my hand raised in victory, setting the stage for a world championship bid.”
