| MILLVILLE, NJ – FEBRUARY 14th – Renowned people’s champion Thomas “Cornflake” LaManna (37-5-1 17KOs), 32, of Millville New Jersey is poised to script one of the most inspiring comeback stories in the annals of boxing. With an ongoing remarkable career marked by grit, determination, and unwavering resilience, LaManna is gearing up for an ultimate (final) shot at a World Championship, marking the culmination of a journey that epitomizes the true essence of perseverance. “It’s never been an easy ride as people may think, boxing is tough, lonely and gets really dark. It’s crazy to think about all the ups and downs I’ve had, but what’s even crazier is that I never gave up. There’s just something in me that won’t allow me to quit”. LaManna’s losses came to only undefeated prospects (Antoine Douglas 16-0-1 & Dusty Hernandez-Harrison 29-0-1), top contender Jorge Cota (29-3) and future/current world champions (Brian Mendoza 18-1, Former WBC Interim Champion and Erislandy Lara 27-3-3, Former Jr. Middleweight World Champion and Current WBA Middleweight World Champion). Despite facing setbacks and challenges throughout his illustrious career, including a WBA World Title opportunity, LaManna’s unwavering dedication to his craft and unyielding passion for the sport have solidified his WBA number 4 position in the Middleweight rankings. “When it’s all said and done, and I become a World Champion, I will have one of the greatest comeback stories in boxing. I have so much faith in me, and I bet on me. I want my journey and my story to serve as hope and inspiration for aspiring up and coming boxers and just regular everyday people alike, showcasing the power of resilience and determination”. As LaManna reflects on his storied career and contemplates his next chapter outside the ring, he will indeed leave an indelible legacy that transcends mere wins and losses. With an unparalleled comeback story etched in the annals of boxing history, “Cornflake” LaManna stands as a testament to the enduring human spirit and the boundless possibilities that await those who dare to chase their dreams relentlessly. LaManna is coming off a 7th round TKO victory over Nicolas Hernandez (28-8-3 12KOs) on December 29th, 2023 at Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. Currently, LaManna holds the WBA Fedelatin Middleweight Championship. |
