Few cities in the US have the kind of history Texas has when it comes to boxing.
From as far back as the late 19th century when boxing was illegal in most cities and states in the US and still going on in Texas.
In the not so distant past in the 80s and 90s, when there were multiple boxing world champions coming out of Texas.
And more recently guys like Andre August and Julio Sanchez making new strides in the boxing world.
From the above, we can see that one thing through the years has been certain, and that is the fact that boxing is an inherent fixture of Texas.
This is why today, we’ll be looking at some of the biggest boxing promotions within Texas.
