Dominican Republic’s Rivera Eyes Spring Return & Title Run in Stacked 140-Pound Division
Salita Promotions just made a power move by signing Michel Rivera, a shining star in the super lightweight division, to a long-term contract. Rivera, buzzing with excitement, is all set for a spring comeback, eyeing the world champion title like it’s the last piece of cake at a birthday party. He’s ready to take on the big guns in his division, backed by a team he believes is as sharp as they come, and a promoter, Salita, who knows the boxing game like the back of his hand.
Rivera, hailing from Santo Domingo and now training in Massachusetts, has a record that speaks volumes, sitting pretty at 25-1 with 14 KOs. His last victory was a masterclass against Sergey Lipinets, marking his grand entrance into the 140-pound division. Despite a hiccup in 2022 against Frank Martin, Rivera’s been on an upward trajectory since his US debut in 2019.
Salita is over the moon about Rivera, seeing him as the spark that could ignite the already fiery 140-pound division. With Rivera’s impressive track record, youthful zeal, and a persona that’s as charismatic as they get, the future looks bright, or should we say, blindingly brilliant for both Rivera and Salita Promotions.
