Devin grew up playing sports through elementary, track and field in 9th grade, and in his senior year picked up MMA and Boxing. He did both for 3 1/2 years, and in that time he did several MMA fights and a handful of boxing matches. He took a hiatus from boxing for about 6 years while he went to school and tried to figure out what he wanted to do with his life.
He kept seeing boxing online and watching fights, and he got the itch. He really wanted to get back into it, and credits his wife for being the encouraging factor for getting him back into boxing.
He's excited to "see people grow and see that click where they are working on throwing that combo and it doesn't feel quite right, and you help them through it, and now they know how to throw and rotate. That connection feels good. I'm excited to help them learn in their own journeys." His favorite thing about the gym is the people. And the gym, of course, because it's the biggest gym he's ever worked out in. But mostly it's the people!
