Hat Trick For La Habra
Boxers
By Will "The Thrill" Trillo
Last week was as busy a time as one could ask for at The
La Habra Boxing Club. The small gym, tucked away in the
uppermost tip of Orange County California, had all three
of it's top fighters performing in Los Angeles on 2
different cards.
Light Heavy Julio Gonzalez (37-2,23 KO's), and Super
Middles Librado Andrade (21-0,15 KO's) and Enrique
Ornelas (20-1, 13 KO's), who all began their boxing
careers in La Habra as youths just looking for a place
to hang out, did what they do best, and all three were
successful.
And although each of the fighters have taken their own
paths, it was imperative that all three get a victory.
For Enrique, after coming off an unexpected Knockout
after being clearly ahead throughout his last fight, it
was time to get back on the winning side.
For Librado, who has been dominating everyone he meets,
it was time to put an explanation point on the year and
remind everyone not to forget him when the 2005 title
run begins.
And for Julio, this was a huge crossroads type fight
that he had to win or face an uncertain future. Anything
short of a big win would take him out of contention for
any of the titles.
The outcome? Mission Accomplished! All three were
victorious and the prospects for 2005 are bright for all
three!
Pound4Pound sends a huge congrats to La Habra's head
Trainer and Cutman, David Martinez who has played a huge
part in all their careers and was working the corner for
all of them last week. As Cheif second for the brothers
and cutman for Gonzalez.
It's was quite a week for a town that most people have
never even heard of!
