TTPost sponsor boxer Trumpet

Trinidad and Tobago professional welterweight boxer Floyd Trumpet was the recipient of a cheque from his employers, Trinidad and Tobago Postal Corporation (TT Post) recently.

The sponsorship forms a significant part of his preparation for a championship bout in Toronto, Canada during the weekend of April 4-6.

Trumpet, a 29-year-old from Longdenville, Chaguanas, has a professional record of 10 wins, one draw and three defeats.

He will step into the ring to face Canadian Rico Tan in a 12-round Fedecentro WBA welterweight clash. Currently employed as a postie in Cunupia, the Vincentian-born Tobago-raised Trumpet is handled by manager Cecil Forde and trainer Anthony Waterman at the Cosmic Boxing Gym in Marabella.

Trumpet is also expecting famed trainer Bertram Legall to join his camp in time for the crucial fight.
