Posted

With the rain falling quietly outside the Reno Events Center, eight Olympic hopefuls stepped in to the ring for a final nine minutes of boxing for an Olympic Trials title.

The light flyweights opened the final session of boxing at the Reno Events Center in the third of three bouts this week between two-time USA Boxing National Champion Leroy Davila (New Brunswick, N.J.) and WSB and World Team Trial champion Nico Hernandez (Wichita, Kansas). 

The four winners from Sunday’s action join bantamweight Shakur Stevenson (Newark, N.J.), middleweight Charles Conwell (Cleveland Heights, Ohio), light heavyweight Jonathan Esquivel (Anaheim, Calif.), heavyweight Cam F. Awesome (Lenexa, Kansas), and super heavyweight Marlo Moore (Hayward, Calif.) in winning 2016 Olympic Trials for Men’s Boxing titles.
