Antuanne Russell Battles Santiago In Nationally-Televised 10-Round Bout May 29th In California!

Undefeated Capitol Heights, MD super lightweight Antuanne "The Last" Russell will look to keep his perfect record intact when he faces Jovanie "El Lobito" Santiago of Dorado, Puerto Rico in a 10-round bout on Saturday, May 29th at the Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, CA.  The bout will open a Showtime tripleheader boxing card.

Russell (13-0, 13 KO's) has yet to get past the fourth round in any bout.  He comes off a first-round TKO over Jose Marrufo in February of 2020 in Allentown, PA.  Santiago (14-1-1, 10 KO's) looks to bounce back from his first pro loss, a 12-round unanimous decision to Adrian Broner on February 20th in Uncasville, CT.  Santiago holds a victory over a Beltway Boxer, defeating former WBO Super Lightweight champion DeMarcus Corley by a 10-round unanimous decision in April of 2017 in Toa Baja, Puerto Rico.

The telecast will get underway at 10 PM ET.
