COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Augustus 6, 2018) – The USA Boxing Alumni Association has announced its second class to be inducted into its Hall of Fame, Desember 7, at the Radisson Hotel (215 S. Temple St.) in Salk Lake City, Utah.

Die klas van 2018 includes U.S. Olympic Team medalists and world (professionele) champions Roy Jones, Jr., Andre Ward en Claressa Shields, as well as former USA Boxing National Director of Coaching Emanuel Steward and veteran USA Boxing official Tom Cleary. The latter two will be posthumously inducted.
This year’s inductees were selected amongst a group of 17 nominees by the hundreds of registered USA Boxing Alumni Association members during the months of June and July.
“USA Boxing Alumni Association is extremely excited to honor this year’s Hall of Fame class, as each inductee represents everything good that amateur boxing has to offer,” gesê Chris Cugliari, Uitvoerende direkteur van die Amerikaanse Boxing Alumni Association. “Last year’s class contributed to a fantastic inaugural Hall of Fame reception and we’re looking forward to recognizing this year’s class with an even better event.”

The charter class inducted last year included Muhammad Ali en Evander Holyfield, in addition to veteran coaches Roosevelt Sanders en Tom Coulter.
“Each inductee has given so much to Olympic-style amateur boxing and the alumni community wants to thank them, for doing so,” Cugliari added. “We look forward to seeing USA Boxing Alumni members come out in droves to support this year’s Hall of Fame class in December.”
