Middleweight Thomas Baldwin Looks To Remain Unbeaten Next Week In North Bergen PhilBoxing.com Sat, 10 Dec 2011 In his young fight career middleweight Thomas Baldwin has made some noise due to his punching power and unrelenting work ethic. Next Thursday, December 15, Baldwin will be looking to extend his unbeaten record to 3-0 as he will be fighting Dominique Foster at Schuetzen Park in North Bergen. Baldwin (2-0-1, 1 KO) has displayed much skill and poise in his first three fights as a professional, showing off both his power and conditioning. He gravitated towards the sport early on, and although where he grew up football and basketball were the majority sports played, he kept his passion for boxing alive inside of him. ?After football I would come home and watch old fight tapes of Ali and do my best to emulate him shadow boxing,? said Baldwin. Baldwin continued his progression with boxing in college until he suffered an ACL injury that sidelined him for a while, in which he put on weight and jumped up to 215 pounds. ?The injury was a blessing,? said Baldwin. ?Once I was healed up I began boxing full time, and knew that?s what I wanted to do.? Although he hasn?t fought in over a year, Baldwin is anxious to get inside the ropes next Thursday. ?It?s been a long time since I have fought, but I am ready,? said Baldwin. ?Since I am a personal trainer, I always stay in shape, so even when I am not at the gym training I was doing what I had to in order to maintain. I knew that once I got my call, I?d be ready.? Baldwin attributes his early success due to his work ethic and his supportive team. ?Terrific and all the guys at Global Boxing are the best,? said Baldwin. ?The work and sparring I get with those guys is top level. And working with Steve Frank has been huge for my progression.? Following his fight next week, Baldwin has expressed much interest in fighting regularly in 2012. ?I definitely want to fight consistently going forward; I?d like to get two fights in November and two in December,? said Baldwin. ?Whenever they call me I know I will be ready; I just want to get out there to showcase my skills and let the public see more of me.? Baldwin is currently managed under formed heavyweight knockout artist Lou Esa of Winning Method Management. ?Lastly, I?d like to give a shot out to all my team for always keeping me strong; Terrific, Steve Frank, Lou Esa and all of my friends and family, co-worker?everyone for keeping me going and supporting me.?
