Ray Ximenez Jr NorthTexas Fisticuffs by Sean Malone

Post by PREMIER »

For various reasons, amateur boxing isn't everybody's cup of tea. Despite a wildly successful career fighting in headgear, Ray Ximenez, Jr. apparently feels the same. In the last several days, Ximenez (along with father, Ray Sr.) has decided he'd rather fight for money than medals and trophies, henceforth. :evil:

You could grow old rattling off the titles and accomplishments Ximenez has garnered, but above all was his # 1 United States ranking in his weight class (114 pounds). To say the least, the 2012 Olympics was a realistic goal, but citing politics and favoritism (among other things), Ximenez doesn't want to waste another two years on something that could prove to be unattainable. :witzend:

DFW boxing fans will get one last chance to watch Ximenez at a reduced rate on the upcoming "Best of the Best Boxing Championships" on September 11th at the Pleasant Grove Recreation Center. I know I’ll be there! :bag:
