EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW w/ Cleveland's own Abdullah Mason | FUTURE BOXING CHAMP

Abdullah Mason had his 14th appearance in the ring this past Saturday winning in 3 rounds. UCSS has this exclusive interview with the Cleveland native to learn about his rise.

Undefeated Abdullah Mason was in a different world against veteran Luis Lebron on Saturday as he notched a third-round TKO victory in their lightweight contest on the Shakur Stevenson-Artem Harutyunyan undercard at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.

Mason (14-0, 12 KOs) made a statement in arguably his strongest test by destroying the 31-year-old Lebron (21-6-1, 13 KOs) in three rounds. The punishment was so severe that his corner threw in the towel as Lebron’s nose bled openly.

Cleveland’s Mason, 20, established his jab from the opening bell to set up good combinations. The prospect’s speed and power harrowed the veteran Lebron, who nevertheless kept coming.

In the second round, Mason, a southpaw, worked the body of Lebron with good shots before landing a big right hand, which left his Puerto Rican opponent’s nose bloodied. Mason did not stop there, continuing to pummeling Lebron to record two quick knockdowns.

The first knockdown came from an uppercut that left Lebron taking a knee. Mason loaded a flurry of punches to the head and body for the second, but Lebron was saved by the bell.

At this stage, it was obvious Mason was determined to prove a point against Lebron, unleashing more punishment that started with quick jabs and followed with power shots that forced Lebron’s corner to call it.

Dominican Republic’s Eridson Garcia proved too strong for William Foster III in their 10-round junior lightweight contest.

In dominant fashion, Garcia (19-1, 12 KOs), who trains out of Houston, Texas, recorded a one-sided 99-91, 98-92 unanimous decision victory over Foster (18-2, 11 KOs).
