Well the big day has come...
After 25 years as a fighter, and the last 10 years as a coach, I have made the extremely tough decision to step back at Crampton's Boxing Academy . The last 4 years alone I have juggled working full time as a coal miner, running a highly successful boxing gym in Lake Macquarie, Hosting boxing events on the Gold Coast with Urban Warfare Boxing and tying to raise a family. I am extremely proud of what we have achieved as a gym helping hundreds of kids from the hunter area, but now it's time to spend time with mine..
I will still be in the sport, my involvement with Urban Warfare and All Fighting Styles will continue, along with the Mates In Mining Fight Night , but now its time for the thing that matters the most, FAMILY...
I would like to thank everyone that supported our dream, from the members to the families, supporters and friends, thankyou so much for everything. Our sponsors who backed us, thankyou, your generosity will never be forgotten.
To Anthony, Frog, Chad, George, Oscar and Toddy, thanks for being there for me, countless hours was put in by you all, and I really appreciate our time together.
I would like to congratulate Shane and Cathy from Uppercut Boxing who have taken over the lease at Unit 2B Number 5 James St Toronto, it is great news that there still will be a boxing gym in the Toronto area and I wish them all the best.
So is farewell for now, once again thanks everyone for your support, and I hope to catch up at the fights every now and again.
Regards
Ben Crampton
