Boxing Notes 1: Appearing Friday @ The Hartford Club, Chip Perez

CHIP PEREZ, 23 years old.

Total of 106 fights as an amateur.

Record: Won 84, Lost 22.

I train with John "Iceman" Scully.

I started boxing when I was 12 years old in Holyoke, MA.





I am now 2-0 with 1KO as a Pro. My next fight is at Mohegan Sun on the 29th of this month. I moved to CT to begin training with "the great" Scully 4 years ago. My dad had me start boxing due to my aggression and attitude and also my determination to win.

My motto: "Pain is temporary, victory lasts a lifetime."

"I'm probably the most competitive person you'll ever know. Boxing is my passion … I am very close to my family, and I live every day trying to be the best father I can!"
