Golden Gloves hoppfulle ”Hurricane” Danny Lugaro och video om Golden Gloves!

Golden Gloves 2013 är i full gång och jag har pratat med en kille från Harrisburg Boxing Club, Danny Lugaro, om hans resa, framtid och tankar inför 2013.

Har följt honom lite på avstånd och han verkar vara en kille som satsar 200 % på sin boxning, träning och kost. Han skulle ha debuterat som proffs redan 2012 men strul med managers gjorde att debuten inte kom. Så nu ska han ställa upp i Golden Gloves Pennsylvania innan debuten.

Notera skillnaderna mellan våra länder i tänk och erfarenhet när det ska satsas på en proffskarriär.

My record was 12-1 as an amateur

3. What are your strengths as a boxer? What do you work extra on in the gym?

I was told I was a crafty fighter and I am often compared to a young Hector ”Macho” Camacho

Basically my strengths are me being a slick power puncher with great footwork.

4. After the Golden Gloves you have said you will turn pro, what made you decide to take the next step and become a professional?

I spar pros at the gym all the time and feel that it is my time to step my level of competition up and the pros is where I feel me and my team need to go.

I expect to win the tournament completely but one fight at a time is where my mind is. Win the locals then win the state championship but one fight at a time for me.

I would fight current champions like Zab Judah, Pacquiao, Garcia, Juan Manuel Marquez, Danny Garcia. I would even fight Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, anyone worth a challenge for me!

Right now food is dangerous for me haha but I would have to say Pizza.

10. What will be your pro-colours?

My main colour will be Orange with black trim and maybe I’ll switch to blue trim at time but basically New York Knicks colours to make it short.
