Season 3: #44 Kevin Kelley
Jul 21, 2021, 04:00 PM
Perhaps best-known for his multi-knockdown thriller with Prince Naseem Hamed as the Prince made his lively US debut in Madison Square Garden, Kelley had a long and illustrious career that resulted in him winning 60 fights, losing 10 and drawing twice.
He fought the likes of Erik Morales, Bones Adams, Marco Antonio Barrera, Derrick Gainer, Troy Dorsey, Humberto Soto, Manuel Medina and many other top-liners.
He was involved in several Fight of the Year contenders but is perhaps remembered fondly for his fast mouth as well as his fast punches. From telling Naz he would 'smoke his boots' to working as a broadcaster on shows including Heavyweight Explosion and KO Nation,. Kelley recounts his fascinating career as a pioneering featherweight at a time when there was a real focus on the larger weight classes.
