Question
Hey jackson I appreciate all the knowledge and your time. I just wanted to know if you knew how many gg national champs came out of Delaware,any weight class just a number. I went on the website and I could not find out. Even if not u have been so instrumental in my decision making. Thanx in advance
Beyond Sugar Ray Leonard I could not tell you. I believe he was from Wilmington. A stat like that you would have to get from the national golden gloves archives I would imagine.
Your welcome and glad to help. I love the sport and anytime I can point somebody in the right direction I feel like I'm doing some good.
Best of luck

Experience
I have been in the sport of boxing since 1984. I started as a boxer and advanced quickly. I was lucky enough to have some of the best sparring in the country with 3 top ten pros in my very gym. I am fortunate enough to live near one of the better boxing programs in the country. We have cultivated our facility into the largest Amateur Boxing Gym in the country. In the mid 90's I became a trainer for Golden Gloves. I train amateur and pro fighters. I have worked in many corners at USA and Golden Glove tournaments. I have worked corners in pro bouts on HBO and ESPN cards. My friend, boss and coach is the former President of Golden Gloves and I trained under his tutelage.
