Amy will be fighting on the March 17th LA Boxing USA Boxing card. Dave has been training Amy for 4 months.  Dave points out, “Prior to coming on with me, her boxing record is 1 and 1. She is an incredible athlete that has picked up on boxing very quickly.”  When Dave was competing in the Police Olympics and USA Boxing he trained at the CYC (Concord Youth Center). He was trained by well respected trainer Cliff Hill.  Dave had top amateurs that would soon turn professional to train and spar with there. Christian Cruz, RJ Karstan, Art Morales….just to name afew. Dave was also afforded the opportunity to travel to several other gyms throughout California to train and spar with other great fighters.  He has a lot of knowledge to share with Amy.  Dave commented, “I am very excited for Amy’s upcoming fight, she has worked extremely hard and learned a great deal about boxing in a short time.  Her hard work will pay off in the ring on March 17th.  She will be celebrating a lot more than just St. Patty’s Day!”
