Chavon Davis Stillwell vs. Izaiah Dent WBA/NABA Light
Heavyweight Championship On Aug. 14
A new chapter in Texas boxing begins on Friday, August 14,
2026, as BiYu Promotions debuts its premier boxing series,
"Fights Under the Lights," at Constellation Field in Sugar
Land, Texas.
Designed to showcase world-class talent alongside boxing's
brightest young stars, the inaugural event promises an
unforgettable evening of championship-caliber action,
highlighted by the highly anticipated return of social media
sensations and undefeated professional prospects Steven and
Daniel Grandy, known globally as the Grandy Twins.
The 10-round main event features a clash of undefeated light
heavyweights as WBA/NABA Light Heavyweight Champion Chavon
Davis Stillwell (10-0, 8 KOs) of Mansfield, Ohio, now
fighting out of Houston, Texas, defends his title against
the hard-hitting Izaiah Dent (10-0, 9 KOs) of Indianapolis,
Indiana.
With both fighters entering the ring unbeaten and boasting a
combined record of 20-0 with 17 knockouts, fans can expect
an explosive championship showdown. Stillwell will look to
make a successful defense of his WBA/NABA crown, while Dent
aims to dethrone the champion and capture the first title of
his professional career in what promises to be a high-stakes
battle between two of boxing's rising light heavyweight
stars.
The 8-round co-main event features another championship
showdown as undefeated knockout artist Jahyden Franklin
Britton (9-0, 6 KOs) of Hempstead, Texas, takes on
hard-hitting Bruno Pola Ruiz (11-4-2, 9 KOs) of San Antonio,
Texas, for the vacant WBA/NABA Super Middleweight
Championship.
Britton enters the bout with an unblemished record and an
exciting, fan-friendly style that has established him as one
of Texas' rising super middleweight prospects. Ruiz, a
seasoned and dangerous opponent with nine knockout
victories, brings the experience and power to test the
undefeated contender in what promises to be an action-packed
championship clash.
While championship boxing headlines the evening, much of the
spotlight will shine on two of boxing's most recognizable
young personalities—the Grandy Twins.
Steven Grandy (4-0, 4 KOs) returns in a scheduled four-round
super featherweight contest against Houston's Gerardo Chavez
Reyes (3-5, 2 KOs), while his identical twin brother, Daniel
Grandy (4-0, 3 KOs), faces Eduardo Tarango (1-5) of El Paso
in a four-round lightweight bout.
Long before they became undefeated professional fighters,
Steven and Daniel Grandy captured the attention of millions
as five-year-old boxing prodigies. Their incredible talent
and infectious personalities earned national appearances on
The Steve Harvey Show, Good Morning America, ESPN, FOX
Sports, and numerous other media outlets.
Today, the twins have evolved from viral sensations into
legitimate professional prospects. Their journey has
included multiple national amateur championships,
appearances alongside some of boxing's biggest stars, and
the development of one of the sport's largest social media
followings among young fighters. Collectively, the brothers
have amassed hundreds of thousands of followers across
Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and Facebook, where their
training videos, family values, and inspirational story
continue to reach millions around the world.
Raised in Philadelphia and now based in Houston, Steven and
Daniel remain grounded despite their growing fame. Trained
since the age of two by their father, Daniel Grandy Sr., the
twins have built a reputation not only for explosive
performances inside the ring but also for their discipline,
humility, and commitment to inspiring the next generation.
Their appearance on "Fights Under the Lights" represents
another milestone in careers that many believe are destined
for championship success.
For BiYu Promotions founder and CEO Bobby Harrison, the
inaugural event represents far more than a single fight
card, it marks the beginning of a long-term vision.
"This event validates my vision because it's the first major
step toward building something special for the boxing
community, not only here in Texas, but other regions in the
United States and neighboring countries," said Harrison.
"We've worked tirelessly to create a promotion that gives
deserving fighters a platform to showcase their talent while
providing fans with exciting, competitive fights. 'Fights
Under the Lights' is more than just a name, it's a vision
for the future of our company. Having championship fights,
rising stars like Chavon Stillwell, Izaiah Dent, and Jahyden
Britton, along with the incredible story of the Grandy
Twins, makes this a card we're extremely proud of. We want
fans to leave knowing they've witnessed something special,
and we hope this is just the beginning of many memorable
nights under the BiYu Promotions banner."
Harrison believes featuring the Grandy Twins is an important
part of growing the sport's audience.
"Steven and Daniel represent everything that's exciting
about the future of boxing," Harrison continued. "People
have watched these young men grow up in front of the cameras
since they were little kids. Now they're undefeated
professionals with tremendous talent, tremendous character,
and a connection with fans that very few fighters possess.
They bring a new audience to boxing while earning the
respect of longtime fans through their performances in the
ring. We're honored to have them as part of our first
'Fights Under the Lights' event."
In addition to the night's featured championship bouts, the
August 14 card will showcase an outstanding lineup of rising
prospects from Texas and across the country, further
demonstrating BiYu Promotions' commitment to developing the
next generation of boxing stars while delivering
competitive, action-packed matchups for fight fans.
Undefeated super middleweight prospect John Torres (12-0-1,
11 KOs) returns in a scheduled six-round bout against Ryan
Adams (12-12-1, 7 KOs).
Also featured in six-round action, unbeaten welterweight
prospect Joshua Franco (4-0, 3 KOs) will take on Roberto
Castro (3-4, 2 KOs).
In a six-round bantamweight matchup, undefeated Mauro Sierra
(12-0, 6 KOs) looks to keep his perfect record intact
against Gabriel Bernardi Cruz (7-5, 3 KOs).
Another undefeated prospect, Ty Cassell (4-0, 2 KOs), will
put his unbeaten record on the line against Charles Scott
Jr. (1-4) in a scheduled four-round lightweight bout.
Rounding out the card, super middleweight Roy Knight (3-1)
returns to the ring in a four-round contest.
With championship bouts, undefeated contenders, hometown
heroes, and two of boxing's most recognizable young stars
all sharing the same stage, BiYu Promotions' "Fights Under
the Lights" promises to deliver an unforgettable night that
celebrates the sport's present while introducing many of its
future champions.
