Fred Hurd, Sr., Father of Former Champion Jarrett Hurd, Passes at 63!

Very sad news to report.  Fred Hurd, Sr.,  the father of former world super welterweight champion "Swift" Jarrett Hurd, has passed away at the age of 63.  Reports are that Mr. Hurd suffered a heart attack in his home.

Mr. Hurd, along with his wife, Brenda, was the major support system behind Jarrett, Justin, and Fred, Jr.  I remember meeting the family during the celebration for Jarrett Hurd at the Prince George's County Government Office in April of 2019.  It was beautiful talking to them and seeing the pride they had.

BATB sends our deepest condolences to the entire Hurd family.
