Wow!!! What a night the Circle of Discipline Amateur Boxing team had. Jonathon Perez started the team off competing in the Flyweight division (112 lbs) against Michael Ruiz from California. Jonathon had to adjust his style a little because Michael is a southpaw boxer. Jonathon stayed busy all three rounds as well as Michael. Unfortunately the referee gave Jonathon a warning for holding, which added two points to Michael in the second round. In the third round the referee gave Jonathon another warning for holding, so Michael received a total of 4 extra points, which was the deciding factor in the bout. Jonathon lost the bout on points. His performance was great for his first Senior national tournament.
Jamal James competed in the Light Welterweight division (141 lbs) against George Rincon from Texas. Jamal looked awesome. He was focused and ready to go. Jamal's punches were more precise and stronger from Monday night. He stayed busy all three rounds catching George with some great combinations. Jamal won the bout on decision and advances to the Quarterfinals.
Javontae Starks finished the Circle of Discipline team off competing in the Welterweight division (152 lbs) against Steven Martinez from New York Metro. Steven was the 2008 National Golden Gloves champion. All three rounds were action packed. Javontae finished the third round strong landing strong sharp combinations, which would freeze Steven in his tracks. Javontae won the bout by decision and advances to the Quarterfinals.
