Greg Cohen Promotions Signs Undefeated Welterweight Reshard 'Too Quick' Hicks to a Promotional Contract
PhilBoxing.com Wed, 03 Jul 2019
Greg Cohen Promotions proudly announces the signing of Killeen, Texas-based welterweight Reshard ?Too Quick? Hicks to a promotional contract.
A naturally talented athlete from Tampa, Fla., Hicks was an All-American cornerback and long jumper at Fordham University before enlisting in the Army's 1st Cavalry Division as a mechanic and serving in Iraq. A successful recovery from stomach cancer led to Hicks? retirement from the forces and his entrance into boxing at age 25.
Wasting no time, the gifted Hicks was the Texas Regional Golden Glove Champion and State Champion in 2012 at 165lbs, finishing with a record of 21-6. He turned professional in 2013 and has already held several regional and state championships.
Hicks is trained by Jesse Ravelo, the 1996 Olympic Boxing, All Marine Boxing Team and International Boxing Team Head Coach out of JR Boxing Club in Killeen. He is managed by Michael Cameron of the Cameron Management Team.
?I am extremely excited to become part of the GCP stable and I look forward to displaying my skills on the big stage,? said Hicks. ?I?ll be working my way to the top and bringing more straps to the GCP family. I?d like to personally thank Greg Cohen, my promoter, and Mike Cameron, my manager, for believing in me. Let?s gets to work! I will not disappoint.?
?I am very happy to have GCP and my good friend Greg Cohen as Reshard?s promotional company,? said Cameron. ?I?m very confident that this is the right move to get him to the top of the 147-lb division. I look forward to a long and successful journey together.?
?We are going to keep Reshard as busy as possible,? said Greg Cohen. ?He?s been having trouble getting fights because he?s so talented and yet unknown, so that?s where Mike Cameron and I come in. We are going to get him the exposure he deserves and the fights he can win all the way to the championship.?
