Roseland, NJ (September 20, 2019) - Talented welterweight prospect Vito Mielnicki Jr. will be in action for his second professional fight tonight in Midland, Texas when he takes on Caleb Bailey as part of the non-televised ShoBox: The New Generation card at The La Hacienda Event Center.

Mielnicki, 17, of Roseland, New Jersey is coming off a spectacular first-round stoppage over Tamarcus Smith on July 13th in front of nearly 1,000 of Mielnicki's fans at The Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.

The knockout earned a spot on the ESPN Sports Center Top-10 Plays of the Day.

"I am excited about getting back in there," said Mielnicki, "I know he is shorter than me. Smith was taller, but it doesn't matter. I am looking to get in there and do what I do best."

Highlights of Mielnicki vs. Bailey will be shown on the ShoBox telecast that kicks off at 10:30 PM ET/PT live on SHOWTIME.
