Regis Prograis: “I will put on a show the fans won’t forget!”
The fight week activities for the WBSS semi-finals on April 27 start Tuesday in Lafayette with a media workout, but Regis Prograis, a Louisiana native, is also taking time to host 50 Lafayette youth for a special one hour training camp and motivational session four days prior to the biggest fight of his career against WBA Champ Kiryl Relikh.
Participants will include kids between the ages of 7-15 from local boxing gyms, and USA Boxing. Each participant will be surprised with a ticket, courtesy of Prograis, to the April 27th World Boxing Super Series semi-finals.
“I am excited to bring a fight of this magnitude to my home state of Louisiana and give back to the community with my platform.
“These kids will have a great experience and then on Saturday I will put on a show that the fans won’t forget!”
