Fleet Blackwood

Fleet Blackwood is a humble, yet determined and energetic boxer eager to make something of himself in and out of the ring.  But his path hasn’t been easy.  Often seen as the underdog throughout his life, Fleet comes from a single parent family, raised by his mother, his father having left the picture many years ago.  Much of his childhood was plagued with struggles for both him and his mom.  Fortunately, Ahiga Montejo found Fleet at a young age and was able to set him on a straight road with the help of his good friend Tony “The Tiger” Mercado.

Both Ahiga and Tony have used boxing as a means to lead and push Fleet.  But the relationships Fleet has formed with his two coaches far exceed sport.  Both men have become like family to him, with Tony being like his crazy uncle.  As for Ahiga…well, the bond Fleet shares with Ahiga has formed even deeper, with Fleet viewing Ahiga as a true father figure in his life.  He owes so much to these men.  And he has vowed to make them proud by winning the belt from his longtime rival, Hanson Hansome Kelly.

Despite the internal and external battles Fleet has faced along his life’s journey, always feeling as if something was missing and always searching for something he is yet to find, he’s always maintained a good heart.  Ahiga recognized his light from their very first meeting, seeing a strong spirit in the boy.  It’s Fleet’s heart and spirit which have allowed him to grow into the intelligent and powerfully willed man he is today, well respected by his home town and well revered by the boxing community.  But on this night of nights, his character will truly be tested, along with his diligence and hard-earned skill.

To truly comprehend the challenges that await him, as well as those that have fought with him his entire life, Fleet must finally understand not only the teachings Ahiga has gifted him with, but also himself.  Before he can prevail, he must realize what he’s truly fighting for.  Only then may he rise….
