Championships continue Saturday, January 31 at same location. Open class winners advance to West Virginia Feb 12-15. Champions from regionals advance to nationals in Denver, Co June 8-13. Just found out #1 boxers in the nationals will receive stipends for $1000 and #2 boxers will get $500 for a year. Compliments from USA Boxing. With that kind of money I need to get back in the gym!!! Too late for me Master boxers are not included.
