Undefeated prospect Francis “Frank The Tank” Hogan (9-0, 9 លើក) will be in the ring February 12លើកទី on a mission to extend his perfect pro record versus Vincent Floyd (4-11-2, 2 លើក) in an 8-round Special Welterweight Attraction on the “St. Valentine’s Day’s Massacre” card, presented by Vertex Promotions, នៅ Moseley's On The Charles នៅ Dedham, ម៉ាសាឈូសេត.
“It’s (streak) very important for me,” Hogan said. “I don’t look at it as going 10 សម្រាប់ 10. I don’t think I need to knockout my opponent as quickly as possible. I don’t go out there looking for a knockout unless I set up an opponent and hurt him. Through the fight I get better and better. I know I can take out a lot of fighters because I know how hard I hit. My left is my best punch. I can knockout guys with my jab, but I’ve knocked out guys with a right hook, ផងដែរ.
“I go into the ring knowing I’m going to take the heart and will away from who I’m fighting. Everybody is looking at me. They know I’m the real deal and how hard I hit. Some come with the will to win, but once I hit them, they just run or hold. I’m going to put them to sleep.”
The 21-year-old southpaw Hogan, fighting out of Weymouth (មាន MA), has knocked out each of his 9 professional opponents to date. The popular fighter was a celebrated amateur boxer, highlighted by his gold-medal performance at the 2019 New England Golden Gloves Championships.
Hogan’s as smart about boxing as he is skilled. “Frank The Tank” understands that there is no rush to accelerate the pace of his career.
“I don’t want to rush,” Hogan remarked. "ខ្ញុំពិតតែ 21 and there’s still a lot of development. I know a lot, but I believe I can learn more. You don’t just transfer from the amateurs to pros. You need to go rounds. Boxing isn’t all about knockouts. I need to gain experience, not only in the ring, but all around. If I get a good offer, បើទោះបីជា, ខ្ញុំនឹងយកវា. ‘It’s Tank Time’ not their time.”
Although his opponent has changed, he is aware that Floyd is tall, long, and that he likes to give and take. “But I’m looking to take him out cold, not have the referee stop the fight,” Hogan added. “I want to start 2002 with a bang by leaving him on the mat.”
