ULTIMATE 7
Words from Steve Valente, a fulfilled coach and promoter:
« I am so proud, proud of my students and of being able to pass the torch to them.
As a former high-level competitor, it is now a true pleasure for me to train them and see them take my place in the ring, where I fought my last match…
In 2015, Christopher Walter and Ilias Krafi were in the stands watching me box, and Alik Canavy was just a child back then.
Today, these three will be competing for international titles in a major federation.
At that time, I decided to stop boxing to pass on my knowledge and put my students in the spotlight. To do for them what couldn’t be done for me, to put them in the best conditions possible to reach the top level.
When you decide to stop, it’s the closing of one chapter to open a new one…
I know that on November 16, they, along with the other club members, will give their all to deliver an amazing show for the audience and will fight like lions.
The adventure continues.”
