“I can do everything. I like to box or bang and even counter-punch when necessary.”
“I am looking to get in four fights this year. I have a good personality and I am focusing on boxing and I feel that I can do great things.”
Said King’s Promotions, Marshall Kuffman. “Marcus is a good prospect. I have seen him in action and he has a lot of ability. He is still very young and I look forward to see him develop over the next few years and I think he has a very high ceiling as a fighter.”
