Atlanta, GA- Georgia Tech has formed its first amateur boxing club, and the boxers will be trained at Buckhead Fight Club, by owner and retired champion Terri Moss.
“This is an honor and an exciting opportunity to train these competitors,” Terri said. “We’re expecting 30-50 people, male and female boxers to be on the team. Georgia Tech has an academic level they must achieve to compete, so I’m looking forward to working with the best and the brightest Tech has.”
