About

Shamar Canal is a seven-time State of New York Boxing Champion, a member of the United States National Youth Boxing Team, and a 101-20 boxing record carrier. He is the 2019 Youth World Spanish Champion, the 2018 Junior World Serbian Champion, the 2018 Junior Ireland World Champion, the 2016 Silver Gloves Champion, and the 2015 Silver Gloves Runner Up. He fights out of the Morris Park Boxing Gym at 644 Morris Park Ave, Bronx, NY at the 123 lbs. weight class.

Canal was born in Albany, New York on December 29th, 2002 to Mr. John Canal and Mrs. Antoinette Curtis. Both Canal’s paternal and maternal grandparents are native born Haitians who emigrated to the United States in the late 1960’s. Born to full-blooded Haitian grandparents Canal’s parents were born in the United States making them officially Haitian-Americans. Because they are both Haitian and both American, the Canals enjoy the best of both of their Haitian and American cultures, upbringing, and heritage.

Canal began boxing at the age of seven when he realized he wanted something more. Being a three-sport athlete of a three-sport athlete—baseball, football, and basketball—he came to understand that he wanted more contact than the sports that he saw his dad excelling and decided to try boxing. He has been boxing ever since. Canal completed High School in three years earning a 3.2 G.P.A. on a 4.0 scale and is a wunderkind who not only excels at boxing and school generally, but particularly, in math.

His boxing heroes are Roy Jones, Jr., Shakur Stevenson, Devin Haney, and Floyd Mayweather and, like them, his goal is to become world champion at multiple weight classes in the pro-ranks to complement those won in the amateurs. He is trained by Aaron “Superman” Davis, the former 1990 WBA World Welterweight Champion. To claim the title, Davis stopped Mark Breland, a 1984 Olympic Gold Medalist and 5-time State of New York Golden Gloves Champion, in the ninth round. He also fought for the 1993 WBA Junior Middleweight Championship losing a close decision to Julio Cesar Vasquez. Other notable fights include Meldrick Taylor, Bronco McKart, and Vinny Pazienza. Davis enjoyed an illustrious 16-year career in boxing before retiring in 2002.

He is advised by Mr. Robert Brewster who also guided Aaron “Superman” Davis, Tyrone “The Harlem Butcher” Jackson, and Kenny “Machine Gun” Mitchell to world titles. He most recently advised Devin “The Dream” Haney to the WBC Lightweight World Title.
