E. Paul Kelly Jr.

The first time I actually laced up real boxing gloves and boxed in a real boxing ring was when I was 8 yrs. Old! I was invited by my older cousins to weigh-ins and someone didn’t show up for a pre matched bout, so I filled in and won my first boxing match! After that moment I was hooked into boxing for the rest of my life (51 of 59 yrs.)! The most influential sport in my life, BOXING gave me the determination, ambition, mental drive, and attitude to be successful in life! I give thanks to my lord and savior, JESUS CHRIST, to have been blessed for the changing sports moments, that have helped me evolve into the man I am today! The opportunity to grow with the WBC program allows me the ability to help those in need in the boxing community. Just to be involved makes us all champions! You gain a sense of pride, to be apart of something bigger than life!
