SPC Jeremiah Perales

Men's Boxing

Jeremiah started boxing at his father’s club when he was ten years old, following in his older brothers’ footsteps. He fell in love with the sport due to the personal accountability it requires. He excelled in the sport, and winning the 2013 Ringside World Championship in Independence, Missouri, was a personal highlight from his early career. After high school, he competed in the Golden Gloves of America National Championship before joining the Army. Since enlisting, Jeremiah has competed in two national tournaments and qualified for a third – and he is laser-focused now on competing at the Olympic level.
