Matchup can’t wait to see this one get underway guys if you don’t know about this young kid eric priest.
Let me just tell you a little about this kid guys.
Um you know boxing is a game that tests both persons, physical and mental strength.
The intense training that goes into molding a boxer is where the key to success in this field lies.
Many people face challenges while training, and this is where they quit before, losing in the ring.
Only a few sports demand, this kind of passion, determination and discipline that boxers devote to the game, and let me tell you guys, eric priest, a promising talent in this professional boxing space in the us is taking this game to a whole new level.
With his relentless hard work and passion, he is a korean american born and brought up in kansas city.
He discovered his love for boxing at the tender age of nine when he started training in combat sports under his father’s supervision.
Eric’S father, a former member of the navy special operations, was able to bring out the hidden talent in him at a young age.
This helped eric to set his goals early in life.
For as long as he can remember, eric has been fascinated with boxing and has wanted to be a world boxing champion.
He started his journey from the ground up fighting as an amateur in several boxing matches.
After 60 amateur fights he landed the opportunity to fight as a professional boxer during his career as an amateur boxer.
He accomplished several milestones by competing in several us qualifiers and ring side world championships.
However, the most notable milestone was the kansas golden glove championship that eric won in 2017.
.
During this time, eric’s talent was recognized by the world famous boxing trainer justin fortune, who offered him to train and compete as a pro boxer.
Since his journey in the professional boxing championships in 2020, eric has set a record as an undefeated middleweight professional boxer under justin’s supervision.
Eric won five boats in dominating fashion and then moved on to join the churchill boxing club honing his skills under the tutelage of pedro nem, uh junior.
So far he has fought seven matches and one all of them would not get well all, but two of them would knock out wins with this brilliant track record of wins.
Eric got the opportunity to sign a multi-year deal with the globally renowned sportswear company adidas to become an official athlete for the brand.
Eric also recently signed a modeling deal with uh wilhelm wilhelmina models, an international modeling and talent agency.
Having sorry um sorry sports careers, where he gets punched in the face every day doing this work as a model where you know, looks top the list of requirements, it’s not easy for eric, but he has managed to strike a balance uh.
This is because eric always wanted to maximize potential in every area of his life, not just sports, despite any type of notoriety in other spaces, boxing is always eric’s top priority.
He is looking forward to making his dream of becoming a world champion a reality uh.
