Undefeated Corey McConnell Set to Head South

Corey McConnell undefeated featherweight champ, 5 times Queensland champ and Arafura, Oceania games gold medal winner will leave his home here on the Gold Coast this week and move to Sydney to train for Daniel Geale’s undercard fight on Main Event PPV, March 7 in Tasmania.

Corey has been training with long time coach and mentor Greg Walker at Team Phantom in Currumbin and at his home gym Legends Boxing & Fitness in Nerang. After overcoming a broken hand and some personal hurdles recently our 26 year old champ decided to surround himself with positive caring family and friends for support, trained hard and is now ready to make waves once again in the world of boxing.

“I’ve never felt so ready to box, the last 6 months have been tuff but as they say what doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger and I feel really strong mentally and physically. I’ve trained really hard and have a great base fitness to begin training in Sydney, Gary Christiansen from Isagenix put me on some dietary and health supplements a month ago and I feel awesome this has been the key to training harder over longer rounds in the ring something I have really wanted to work on.

I’m really looking forward to beginning the next chapter in my professional boxing career in Sydney and making a comeback ideally it would have been better to stay here on the Gold Coast but I’ll be home every couple of weeks to see my family and friends and ground myself here at my home gym at Legends, we have the best people come here and train, it’s like one of those old school gyms where you always just feel at home.
