I’m David Flores, Head Coach at Boxing for Christ. I started boxing at nine years old at the ABC Youth Foundation in San Diego under Billy Moore. After a few years competing with that team, I moved and trained with Coach Ian at Project Fighting Chance, then later with Coach Frank at Fontana Boxing Club. When I moved to San Jacinto, I ran into trouble and ended up in prison. After getting out, I turned my life around and began coaching. I took everything I learned from my own coaches and poured it into helping others. That’s when I got involved with Boxing for Christ and helped build it into what it is today. Since then, I’ve coached multiple national champions and was asked to help David Navarro prepare for the Olympic Trials, where he placed second. Now, I lead a committed team of fighters—young athletes with the talent and drive to become future world champions. Boxing changed my life. Now I use it to help change others.
