Frank Stallone is a huge fan of boxing. More than just a former amateur boxer, with 23 fights to his credit, Frank Stallone is also a boxing historian and collector of boxing memorabilia. Frank even served as the original casting director for “The Contender” series. Now he’s about to go even deeper into the sport as the Goodwill Ambassador for the First State Fighter Series, which starts Friday, July 13th at the Police Athletic League in Hockessin, Delaware.
Frank is waiting for the sport of boxing to make a comeback. “Boxing used to be in the headlines. Now, you don’t see it… I watch all the fights, but I’m waiting for something to happen. The heavyweight division can’t get any worse. You have guys talking in the third person, with earrings, talking smack and calling people names. Talking big-mouth stuff.”
Frank hopes that events like the First State Fighter Series will help bring boxing back into a positive spotlight and attract more kids to take up the sport. For the full article, click HERE. – Craig
