He has defeated all odds against him by joining the boxing game at age 23 and easily beating well known boxing contenders. We discuss Dewayne's journey on how he became a hugely talked about boxing prospect in the game, his struggles, and some of his achievements. Dewayne also dives into the business of boxing, his training, being a leader in his niche, and much more.    Questions Asked: So, Dewayne I have known you now for over 4 years as me and you used to train in the same boxing gyms in Raleigh.
