Jonah


We've got our first state champ for the year - Jonah. He fought really well with the referee stopping the contest after three standing eight counts. We've had two other fighters in the tourney so far this year. Jesse won his first amateur bout and will be fighting next week again. Tim lost a tough 3-2 decision. Matt will be fighting next week also.

Recap

Jimmy lost to Eric Draper by decision Friday night. It was a shame he couldn't have gone out on a high note but  that's the boxing game for you. The Cyber Boxing Zone has a nice write up about him and his career. He went out like he came in, as Gentleman Jimmy Holmes. All of us here at the gym are very proud of him and what he has done for the local boxing scene. He'll still be here at the gym using his experience to train our fighters, of course.

We've had two fighters in the Golden Gloves so far. Jesse won handily in his amateur debut and Tim lost a 3-2 decision. Jonah fights this week.
