In Your Corner with Kerry Pharr
A Boxing Trainer's Tales from Ali to Holyfield
In Your Corner with Kerry Pharr
Kerry Pharr has met, known, mentored, coached, and lived alongside many of the greats in the field of competitive boxing. While Kerry could have gone pro (and almost did), life and family pulled him other directions. Yet, boxing was in his blood, and he determined to share his knowledge and skills as a mentor and trainer to allow others to live out their boxing dreams.
Follow Kerry as he becomes a sparring partner in the powerhouse boxing world with Jimmy Heair and Vidal Flores from Mexico, a light-heavyweight who had fought top-tier opponents.
He follows up with sparring sessions with Billy Goodwin in Milwaukee, and even spars with Eddie Brooks, one of Muhammad Ali’s sparring partners, only to realize that a professional career was the best thing that was never going to happen for him.
Kerry’s illustrious backdrop of notable associations includes boxing greats such as:
Muhammad Ali
Evander Holyfield
Rocky Graziano
Darrel “Fast Fists” Fuller
Jack Dempsey
Keith McKnight
Diamond Jim MacDonald
And many more …
