Unbeaten prospect scores biggest victory of his career over Muhammad Ali's grandson

Treavon Craycraft defeats Nico Ali Walsh

BiYu Promotions delivered an action-packed night of professional boxing on Saturday, October 10, 2026, as the “Heart of America Pro + Am Boxing Invitational” took center stage at historic Memorial Hall in Kansas City, Kansas.

The action was broadcast live on CombatVisionTV, with the event replay available on the platform.

In the eight-round main event, undefeated Treavon Craycraft (10-0-1, 3 KOs) scored the biggest victory of his professional career, defeating Nico Ali Walsh (12-3-1, 5 KOs) by unanimous decision. Ali Walsh, the grandson of legendary heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali, entered Memorial Hall looking to get back into the win column, but Craycraft had other plans.

The undefeated fighter rose to the occasion over eight rounds, using the opportunity to establish himself against the most recognizable opponent of his young career. Craycraft maintained his composure under the main-event spotlight and did enough throughout the contest to earn the judges’ decision. Scorecards read 78-74, 77-75 twice all in favor of Craycraft.

For Craycraft, defeating Ali Walsh on a nationally and internationally accessible broadcast provided the type of breakthrough opportunity young fighters work toward, and he capitalized when it arrived.

The 8-round co-main event produced one of the evening’s most impressive performances as Baltimore’s undefeated bantamweight contender Dominique Crowder (20-0, 12 KOs) captured the NABA Silver Bantamweight Title with a devastating second-round knockout of Filipino contender Jayson Mama (21-5-1, 10 KOs).

Crowder entered the bout ranked No. 12 by the IBF and looking to prove he was ready to take another significant step toward the upper tier of the bantamweight division. He did exactly that.

Rather than allowing the experienced Mama to settle into the fight, Crowder imposed himself early and ended matters in the second round, becoming the new NABA Silver champion.

The victory adds a championship belt to Crowder’s undefeated résumé and gives the Baltimore contender additional momentum as he pursues bigger fights and an eventual opportunity at a world championship.

It was also a memorable night for Olathe, Kansas brothers Jorge Carlos and Izak Carlos, who both delivered knockout victories in front of their hometown supporters.

In a scheduled 10-round super lightweight contest, Jorge Carlos scored a second-round knockout over experienced Paraguayan Carlos Manuel Portillo (23-11, 17 KOs).

Carlos wasted little time taking control of the fight and finished Portillo in the second round. The victory kept Carlos’ perfect professional record intact at (14-0, 12 KOs)

His brother Izak Carlos needed even less time. Competing at super featherweight, Izak stopped Colombia’s experienced Deivi Julio (29-19, 18 KOs) by first-round knockout.

The victory improved Izak to (9-0, 7KOs), completing a perfect night for the Carlos family as both brothers scored emphatic stoppages close to their Olathe hometown.

Highly decorated Hawaiian amateur standout Azariah Cottrell made an impressive transition into traditional professional boxing, scoring a second-round knockout over veteran Karla Valenzuela Garcia (3-42-3, 1 KO) in their four-round lightweight bout.

Despite making her official professional debut against an opponent with more than 45 professional fights, Cottrell looked comfortable under the lights and ended the contest in the second round. The victory gives Cottrell a (1-0, 1 KO) and officially begins the professional chapter of a boxing journey that started when she was a child in Hawaii.

Unbeaten Eric Valencia (8-0, 7 KOs) continued his knockout streak with a first-round KO of Martin Diaz (18-25-2, 8 KOs) in their six-round super lightweight contest.

Valencia entered the fight having stopped six of his first seven professional opponents and once again demonstrated his finishing ability, ending the fight before the opening round concluded.

Middleweight Jamar Pemberton added another stoppage victory to his résumé, knocking out Edwin Gamboa (13-14-2, 6 KOs) after he couldn't return for the sixth round. The 5th round victory improved Pemberton’s professional record to (11-1, 6 KOs)

In super middleweight action, Shomari Wilson remained undefeated with a unanimous decision over veteran Kynndale Prather. Wilson controlled the four-round contest and earned a 40-36 score, moving his professional record to (2-0, 1 KO).

Super lightweight Alan Panduro Angulo improved to (7-0, 4 KOs) following a six-round unanimous decision victory over Nasser Matrane. Angulo went the distance and earned the judges’ decision to keep his undefeated professional record intact.

Ryan Maine (10-0, 7 KOs) added another victory to his undefeated record with a seventh-round technical knockout of David Lobo Ramirez (20-8, 15 KOs). The scheduled eight-round contest provided Maine with valuable rounds against an experienced opponent before he ultimately forced the stoppage in round seven.
