Boxer Survives 36 Shots In Car Starts A Foundation Gloves Up Guns Down Lamount Powell

The 26-year-old Powell was a three-time Silver Mittens champion, who compiled a 45-4 amateur record, prior to turning two years ago. He is 7-0 (1 KO) as a professional but, due to the pandemic, he hasn't fought since last August, when he won a 4-round unanimous decision over 14-7-1 Ricardo Garcia.
Back on that near fatal night in 2018, Lamont and his uncle were sitting in a car in front of Powell's home, when another vehicle suddenly and surprisingly stopped near them. Two unidentified young men jumped out and starting firing automatic weapons in Powell's direction. Thirty-six rounds were shot, one hit Powell's uncle in the leg, but Powell somehow miraculously escaped without a scratch.
