Many thanks to all of my team mates who helped me with training and sparring this week. Including, but not limited to, Kofi, Newton, Michael and also Coach Will and Coach Richard.
Remember, we are all on the same team. We will be going to the Brampton Cup as a team.
Let's work together and show Ontario, show Canada, that Toronto, and in particular, Stockyards has the best boxers. Go team.
