UCA Super Middleweight Vinny Bellafronte, Woodland Fire Department will be making his ring debut October 15, 2022 at the NorCal Battle of the Badges. He will square off Andy Pholkham, Sacramento Sheriff’s Office in a UCA Super Middleweight bout. Vinny answered a few questions about his upcoming fight, his opponent, and training.
UCA – What gym do you train at?
VB – I train at DG Combat in Concord CA.
UCA – When did you start training at DG Combat?
VB – I started training with my coach Tony DeSousa at DG Boxing in 2010.
UCA – How many days a week are you training for boxing?
VB – Every day’s training has at least aspects of boxing in it. Everything I have been doing since taking the fight has been in preparation for this bout.
UCA – How often do you spar?
VB – I spar twice a week.
UCA – How many miles per week do you run?
VB – I put in about 6 to 8 miles a week. Some long runs and some sprinting workouts.
UCA – Aside from running and preparing for your fight at the gym do you do any other training?
VB – Other training includes weight training and interval work.
UCA – You will be making your ring debut against Andy Pholkham, SSO who has fight experience and knows what it’s like fighting in front of a big crowd. Do you think that gives him an advantage?
VB – Sure. I think if I’m completely honest, it would give him a slight advantage, simply because it won’t be so novel for him as it will be for me. I plan on compensating for this disadvantage by putting myself in as good of shape as I can possibly be in.
UCA – Have you and your coach come up with a game plan for the fight?
VB – Yep! Try to beat him up if I can.
UCA – Do you have a prediction ?
VB – I’m gonna do my very best.
