RILEY W/ PROMOTER JOE DEGUARDIA



The 2006 PAL and National Golden Gloves Champion Riley, is a highly entertaining fighter, with very good speed and concussive power in both his hands. The Miami native is looking to climb the ranks and make the successful transition from prospect to contender in 2010.

"Yathomas has all the goods to become and reign as light heavyweight champion for a very long time," stated Joe DeGuardia, CEO of Star Boxing. "This will be his third full year as a pro and we are looking to keep him very active, and move him very quickly in 2010. He has a very fan friendly style and the type of throw back attitude where he will fight anyone, anywhere, anytime, and we just love that about him. We expect a sensational and thrilling performance out of him Saturday night, the first of many in the year to come."

"I'm ready to show the world who Yathomas Riley really is in 2010," stated Riley. "I'm always in shape, I'm always in the gym, fighting is my whole life. At this point in my career, I'm more focused and hungrier than I have ever been. I have big goals for myself in this sport and there isn't going to be anyone who steps in that ring with me who is going to get in the way of what I want to accomplish in my career. Make sure you don't blink on Saturday night, because Foster's night is going to end quickly."
