Elieser Castillo takes on Adam Harris at The Blue Horizon on June 6

PHILADELPHIA (May 14, 2008)—In what was already a big night of boxing just got even bigger as a twelve round cruiserweight battle between Elieser Castillo & Adam Harris has been added to a great night of boxing at The Legendary Blue Horizon in Philadelphia..

Castillo of Miami via Havana, Cuba has been a mainstay in the Heavyweight division as he has fought and defeated some top-ranked contenders over his twelve year career.

Castillo has a record of 30-6-2 with seventeen knockouts. He holds victories over the first man to defeat Wladimir Klitschko in Ross Purrity, undefeated Andre Purlette (32-0), former U.S. Olympian Lawrence Clay-Bey (18-1) & former IBF Cruiserweight champion Uriah Grant, who Castillo starched in one round.

Castillo has never been knocked out despite being in the ring with a whose-who of the Heavyweight division. He has gone the distance with former IBF Heavyweuight champion Chris Byrd, former WBO Heavyweight title challenger Alexander Zolkin for which Castillo battled to a disputed draw, as well as dropping razor thin majority decision to former WBC Heavyweight champion Tim Witherspoon and former IBF world title challenger DaVarryl Williamson.

In a way Castillo can avenge the loss to Witherspoon as the former WBC champ is one of Harris’ trainers.

Castillo is coming off a sixth round stoppage over Lenzie Morgan this past February 21st in Miami

A win over Castillo would catapult the thirty-three year old Harris.

Harris, who now resides in Philadelphia is a native of Worcester, Massachusetts and has a record of 10-0 with seven knockouts.

Harris has been slowly stepping up the competition and Castillo presents the biggest challenge by far for Harris.
