WORCESTER, מסה. (פבואר 21, 2019) – Worcester boxer Kendrick “Peppa” כדור, ג 'וניור. is living the dream and closing in on some of his goals in the ring.

כדור (11-1-2, 8 קוס), fighting out of his native Worcester, תואר שני, will headline his first show and fight for his first title belt, when he headlines “Every Man For Himself”, the inaugural event presented by Shearns Boxing Promotions (SBP), on Friday night, מרץ 15, בבית פלדיום בווסטר.

“This fight is so important for me because I’ve always wanted to headline in my hometown and fight for a title,” ה-6′ 3″ Ball said. “Another goal of mine, לפני שהתחלתי לאגרוף, was to fight on a card with my cousin, אוון קטן, מי יהיה מה שהופך את הופעת הבכורה מקצוענית שלו. He’s a big puncher and people can expect a big KO from him.

“I’m an exciting fighter who likes to get knockouts. Expect something big to happen March 15ה. I’m working on boxing more, using my jab a lot, to improve. I don’t know a lot about my opponent, but I understand he likes to move a lot.”

“Shearns Boxing is happy to have Kendrick Ball, ג 'וניור. headline our Mar. 15ה כרטיס,” SBP promoter Chuck Shearns העיר. “He’s a good kid whose family is rooted in Worcester boxing. There definitely is a rise in the number of quality fighters coming out of Worcester. This will probably be our last chance to watch Kendrick Jr. fighting in Worcester before his promoter, אגרוף CES, has him fighting on the national scene.”

כדור, who started boxing at 13, experienced an unusual start to his boxing career, losing his first nine amateur bouts, before becoming a decorated boxer who turned pro in 2016.

“I wasn’t really ready, my head wasn’t into boxing when I started,” Ball explained. “I didn’t want to quit, and that experience taught me to never to give up. I knew that I was good – I had success sparring with pros – but it wasn’t there when I fought. I kept punching and grew into my own.”

Ball captured gold medals at three Western Golden Gloves Championships, plus top honors at the Rocky Marciano Tournament, also becoming a prestigious USA New England champion.

“We have a tight bond and we’ve been doing this since he was little,” Ball Sr. reported. “It’s worked out well. I try to separate father-son and make it trainer-boxer, but that’s hard at times.”

His son added, “It’s all good. Sometimes it’s difficult and becomes a little hard, but only because he’s pushing me. He’s my trainer, mostly, during fights.”

Father and son agree that there is a boxing resurgence in Worcester, which has a rich history dating back a century, but it also went through a slow period. Ball is part of a gifted quartet that’s making noise today in boxing, joining Khiary גריי, Jermaine Ortiz ו אירווין גונזלס.

“Over the last three years,” Ball St. העיר, “boxing has been hot again in Worcester. There are a lot of talented, young boxers in Worcester. Once Khiary turned pro, that triggered a lot of boxers turning pro.”

“We’re all close,” Ball Jr. הגיע למסקנה. “We’ve trained together and support each other.”

Worcester boxing is on the rise and more talent is turning pro, starting Mar. 15ה when Ball’s cousin, Minor, makes his long-awaited pro debut in a four-rounder versus קורי מורלי (0-2-1), של פילדלפיה.

Undefeated Providence light heavyweight Angel Camacho, ג 'וניור. (15-0, 5 קוס) returns to the ring after a three-year absence in a six-round bout, co-featured event against Dallas challenger Taronze Washington (17-26, 9 קוס).
