Shlomo Boyd Steps Up to Face UFC Veteran Sheymon Moraes at DBX2
Miami, Florida – June 14, 2024
In the biggest test of his career to date, rising MMA prospect Shlomo Boyd will step into the cage at Dirty Boxing Championship 2 (DBX2) against none other than UFC veteran Sheymon Moraes.
Originally scheduled to face another opponent, Sheymon found himself without a dance partner until Shlomo Boyd stepped in on short notice — and stepped up in a major way.
Sheymon Moraes (12-6), a veteran of the UFC and PFL, is known for his high-level striking and experience against top-tier competition. Representing Brazil, Moraes has shared the cage with elite talent like Zabit Magomedsharipov, Sodiq Yusuff, and Andre Fili. He now looks to reassert his dominance on the global stage under the bright lights of The Hangar at Regatta Harbour in Miami.
But standing in his way is Israel’s own Shlomo Boyd, who comes into this bout hungry, fearless, and laser-focused.
Fighting out of American Top Team – Team Lima, Shlomo is no stranger to adversity. He’s been preparing under the watchful eyes of elite coaches and grinding alongside some of the best in the business. Represented by Boyd Brothers MMA, his corner will feature a strong support unit with Azeyah Boyd, Elkahyam Boyd, and Dante Barjon by his side.
This is not just another fight for Shlomo. It’s a career-defining opportunity.
At DBX2, it’s not just about titles — it’s about legacy. For Sheymon, it’s another step toward reclaiming his place in the spotlight. For Shlomo, it’s the kind of opportunity that fighters dream about: a chance to dethrone a veteran and announce himself to the world.
