#23- Champ Up. Lessons learned in life by way of knockout with Chris Romulo
Chris Romulo was born in Queens, not exactly the easiest of areas to grow up.
He found his way into Muay Thai kickboxing simply because he got into a street fight, and ended up with a shattered eye socket, a broken nose and a bruised spirit. He didn't want to be afraid anymore. Romulo began his amateur career 1996 at age 21 .
In 2003, Romulo began training under Jason Strout. That same year, they worked together to develop Church Street Boxing Gym's first Muay Thai program. Romulo's amateur career included five titles.
As a professional fighter, Romulo's record was 13–3 [10 KOs] his accolades include:
- WKA super middleweight North American title in 2010.
- US National Championship
- North American Championship
- Bronze medal in Bangkok in the World Cup.
After retiring from a 16 year fighting career, he now "fights" with his words through the "Champ Up" program as a youth empowerment speaker! Speaking at over 55 schools in the last year!
