It was 4 years ago today boxing lost one of its greatest trainers & teachers the sport has ever known. Many champions were crowned and many lives were saved at the John Kronk Community Center. Not everyone will become a champion in boxing, but if you apply the lessons your taught, you can become a champion in life. RIP Chief! 🙏🏼
