Jeff Fraza
Jeff Fraza

Jeff, 26, is a tough Boston professional from Haverhill, MA trying to prove he can compete with the bigger fighters. Coming from a lineage of fighters, Jeff’s grandfather, father and brother all fought in the ring as well. As a kid he was bullied a lot and found himself fighting to defend himself. Soon after, his dad built a boxing ring in their attic and Jeff and his brother honed their craft with the help of their father. A single house-dad who trains and fights along with taking care of his son, who Jeff passionately claims as his first priority and inspiration. “I definitely do this for my son, I’d really like to set him up in life, where I can guarantee a good future for him.”
