On Friday January 13, NABA Light Middleweight Champion Adam “The A-Bomb” Trupish will get a chance to back up his “rhetoric” when he takes on Janks Trotter in a 10 round title fight held in Calgary, Alberta at Desperado’s Night Club.
Weeks before the contract was signed, “A Bomb” began lobbing personal insults from Edmonton to Calgary where Trotter lives and trains. He called Trotter his “Expletive” and the two time Canadian Olympian continued his bombastic verbal assault in interview after interview. According to Trupish, he was shocked that Trotter had the gall to ask for a fight. Trupish went on to remind boxing fans of his resume which includes 9 National Titles, two brief Olympic appearances and Trupish was named Canadian fighter of the year, twice. He scoffed at Trotter’s resume and pointed out that he and Trotter shared two common opponents (Jordan Clarke & Richard Reittie) and it was Trupish who was more impressive, according to Adam. Trupish fought Reittie and Clarke as amateurs; knocking out Clarke in the first round and winning a decision over Reittie, multiple times. For the record, Trotter knocked out Clarke, as a pro, in the first round and the 27 year old Irish Canadian sent Reittie home with an 8th round TKO loss on November 19, 2011. Read More
