Kevin Nuñez Fight Week Interview

In this special fight week episode of Weighing In with Travis Hartman, I sit down with professional boxer Kevin Nunez ahead of his upcoming fight on February 19 fighting under Christy Martin Promotions. Born in Puerto Rico and fighting out of Orlando, Kevin opens up about his boxing journey, training camp, mindset going into this fight, and what this moment means for his career. We also talk about the importance of this event, which is helping raise awareness and support the fight against domestic violence — a cause deeply connected to Christy Martin’s story and legacy. This is a raw, real conversation about sacrifice, preparation, and what it takes to step into the ring when everything is on the line. If you’re a boxing fan, fighter, or someone who respects the grind behind the scenes — this episode is for you.   02:05 – “Who am I?” confidence and self-belief 03:40 – Fighting for a cause: Christie Martin & domestic violence awareness 06:10 – Why Christie Martin is a true legend 09:05 – Being genuine on and off the mic 11:30 – Faith, family, and upbringing in Puerto Rico 14:45 – Baseball roots and discovering boxing 17:40 – Puerto Rico’s boxing legacy (Cotto, Trinidad) 20:10 – Choosing boxing and first gym experiences 23:15 – Turning pro and early career struggles 26:10 – Losing the pro debut and learning the business of boxing 29:30 – Reigniting passion with Coach Craig Duncan 32:00 – Full circle moments and God’s timing 34:40 – Boxing, discipline, and character 37:20 – Owning a gym & Mayweather Boxing franchise 40:10 – Training camp while balancing family and business 43:30 – Defining success beyond winning 46:00 – Legacy, leadership, and giving 100% effort 49:00 – Faith vs religion and personal relationship with God 52:00 – What to expect on fight night (Feb 19) 54:30 – Final thoughts and gratitude
