HARTFORD, Коннектикут. (Оны зургадугаар сар 7, 2018) – Hartford boxing prospect “The Special One “Sharad Collier has overcome tougher obstacles in life than he may ever face in the ring.

 

 

 

The two-time New England Golden Gloves champion will make his professional debut Saturday night, Оны зургадугаар сар 16, on Hartford Boxing Promotions’ inaugural event, “Fight Night at The Capital”, at Xfinity Centre in Hartford.

 

 

 

“I’m excited to make my pro debut at home in Hartford,” Collier said. “Fans are going to see a whole new beast: more power, speed and I’m not just in the ring to fight. I’m going to put on a show. Here’s what ‘Special’ stands for: S is for speed, P for power, E for enthusiasm, C for charisma, I for intelligence, A for – athleticism, L is for the looks.”

 

 

 

Universal Boxing Federation (UBF-д ирэх) All America light heavyweight champion Ричард “Popeye The Sailor хүн” Ривера (7-0, 6 Kos) will defend his title and fight Mexican challenger Jaime “Zarco” Solorio (12-3-2, 9 Kos) in the eight-round main event.

His uncle was murdered three years outside of a venue in which Sharad was boxing and, sadly, his father has been in and out of prison. Collier grew up in toughest part of (south) Хартфорд, spent time in a detention center and, at times, lived in and out of foster homes.

 

 

 

“I’ve been through a lot in life,” the charismatic Collier admitted. “I’ve had to fight my whole life. My goals include becoming world champion, making good money, and buying a house. I have two kids and I want them to have a better life than I did. I love boxing and it’s my way out.”
