22-0: Regis Prograis dominates Juan Jose Velasco in hometown of New Orleans.

[sg_popup id=”21″ event=”onload”][/sg_popup]Boxing in the big easy is starting to pick back up.

Regis Prograis is considered by most to be the best in his weight class. The New Orleans southpaw fighter has been going on a tour taking down all of the junior welterweights. He is sponsored by Young Money Sports, We Dat’s, and a few other notable brands. New Orleans has a lot of faith in Prograis and his career.

Last night was his 22nd fight. The fight took place in his hometown of New Orleans at the Lakefront Arena. His opponent Juan Jose Velasco didn’t last that long after a body shot sent him tumbling like Joe Frazier.

If you haven’t heard of Prograis, he’s definitely worth the look up. We’ll be covering his career more in depth going forward! Congratulations on your 22nd win champ!
