DANNY GARCIA’S SWIFT PROMOTIONS RETURNS ON SATURDAY JUNE, 7 WITH ACTION-PACKED EVENT FROM THE NEWTOWN SPORTS & EVENTS CENTER IN NEWTOWN, PA.

PHILADELPHIA – May 6, 2025 – Boxing legend Danny Garcia’s Swift Promotions will return for their second event of 2025 with an action-packed lineup headlined by the return of former world champion Mickey Bey taking on Tobias Green, and also featuring super prospect “King” David Garcia and more on Saturday, June 7 from the Newtown Sports & Events Center in Newtown, Pennsylvania, outside of Philadelphia.

Title “The Future Is Now: Series II”, the event will feature some of the sport’s premier rising talent as Swift Promotions will look to build off of the momentum of their previous event in March and deliver another night of memorable action for fight fans in Pennsylvania.

**Tickets for the live event are on sale now and can be purchased HERE

To apply for media credentials, please visit www.swansonpr.com/credentials

The event will stream live beginning at 7 p.m. ET on Millions.co or through the Millions App for the price of $19.99.

“I can’t wait for June 7 to give fight fans from Philly and all of Pennsylvania another stacked card with the stars of Swift Promotions,” said boxing legend and Founder and CEO of Swift Promotions Danny Garcia. “From top to bottom, these fighters have serious skills and they’re ready to leave it all in the ring. Make sure you come out and support, because I know everyone on this card is coming to show out.”

A native of Cleveland, Ohio who now trains in Philadelphia, Bey (25-3-1, 13 KOs) became a world champion in 2014 with a decision victory over the reigning lightweight world champion Miguel Vazquez, who had been riding a 13-fight winning streak before running into Bey. Most recently, Bey returned to the ring with a pair of stoppage victories in October 2023 and May 2024 and has now joined the Swift Promotions stable as he looks to make another run to the top of the sport beginning with this eight-round super lightweight attraction on June 7. He will face the 28-year-old Green (12-3-1, 4 KOs), who is unbeaten in his last six outings. A Florida-native, Green will make his 2025 debut after defeating Jayson Velez in June 2024 before most recently fighting Andrew Rodgers to a draw in July.

At just 15-years-old, David “King” Garcia (3-0, 2 KOs) turned pro in 2024 after a standout amateur run across 80 fights that included four national championships and has now signed with Swift Promotions to continue his pro run. A native of Phoenix, Arizona, Garcia began boxing at just four-years-old, as his father and trainer David Sr. was inspired by the father-son team of Danny and Angel Garcia. With the backing of boxing stalwarts such as Danny Garcia, Puerto Rican star Edgar Berlanga and former world champion Mickey Bey, Garcia opted for the professional ranks instead of a run to the Olympics, and will continue that journey on June 7 in a four-round bout for a bantamweight youth title.

The action will also see Philadelphia’s own Miguel Roman (4-1-1, 1 KO) step into the ring for a six-round super featherweight affair as he looks to bounce back from a split-draw against Michael Ruiz in his previous fight last November. The 25-year-old turned pro in 2020 and won his first four bouts.

Also stepping into the ring is rising welterweight Thanjhae Teasley (12-0, 6 KOs) looking to keep his unbeaten record intact in an eight-round showdown. The 26-year-old Teasley is a native of Allentown, Pennsylvania and kicked off his 2025 in Swift Promotions’ first event of the year, as he stopped Eudy Bernardo in three rounds on March 8.

June 7 will also feature the return of Puerto Rican contender Jonathan Rodriguez (17-3-1, 7 KOs) in an eight-round bantamweight attraction. Now fighting out of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, Rodriguez worked his way up the rankings with a 10-fight unbeaten streak before he was beaten by top contender Antonio Vargas in February 2024. Most recently, Rodriguez traveled to Japan and dropped a contest to Japanese superstar Tenshin Nasukawa last July.

The stacked card continues with the return of the unbeaten Raymond Cuadrado (8-0, 3 KOs) in a six-round attraction fought at a 138-pound catchweight. The 28-year-old from Ridgewood, New York last entered the ring in June 2023 when he defeated Yeuri Andujar by unanimous decision.

Exciting featherweight prospect Keith Colon (5-0, 5 KOs) will make his third appearance of 2025 on June 7, as he competes in a six-round duel. The 22-year-old put together a stellar amateur career that included a run to the final of the 2021 U.S.A. National Championship. Fighting out of his native Newark, New Jersey, Colon has scored stoppage victories over Angelo Ramos in February and Rashad Hicks in April so far this year.

The hard-hitting 22-year-old Russian prospect Dariial Kuchmenov (8-0, 6 KOs) will compete in a six-round super featherweight bout. Now fighting out of Los Angeles, Kuchmenov enters this fight having scored KO victories in each of his last three outings, including most recently delivering a first-round stoppage of Daniel Lugo in May 2024.

Also in action will be 19-year-old prospect Juan Rivera V (6-0, 4 KOs) in a six-round super lightweight attraction. A Philadelphia-native with a high-level amateur pedigree, Rivera turned pro in April 2024, and has already earned a pair of victories in 2025 after stoppages of Marcello Williams in February and Yeifer Valencia one month later in March.

Making his pro debut will be amateur standout Rommel “Ro” Dunbar in a four-round featherweight tilt. A three-time state champion before turning pro, Dunbar has sparred with notable action fighter and former title challenger Azat Hovhannisyan.

FOSTER

“I thought it was shutout. I don’t know.”

“I don’t know, man. I thought it was easy. I thought it was an easy fight. I didn’t get touched except with a headbutt. I don’t know, man.”

“I’ll be back. But I want the rematch. They stole this from me. They stole this fight from me. I just wanted to show the world I could bang it out, and if I want to, I don’t have to get touched. I guess it wasn’t good enough for the judges.”
