For highly successful individuals, the choice to sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor is the easiest to make. While there’s nothing inherently wrong with this decision – as it is, in fact, the goal that countless set their eyes on – there are those who opt to capitalize on their reach and influence to enable success for others. Banking on their years of experience and in-depth understanding of their field, they eventually emerge to become a go-to authority, especially for new entrants. Freddy Anthony Rodriguez, better known as Coach Anthony, is a trusted name whose impressive track record in the world of boxing has allowed him to serve as a trainer to aspiring and veteran fighters. Today, he continues to help passion-fueled individuals transform into the best fighters in the comfort of their own homes.
A world-renowned boxing trainer, Coach Anthony has spent the better part of the last two decades supporting those under his wing to improve their boxing performance. At the same time, he’s gone all-out in equipping them with the knowledge and resources they need to grow and maximize their potential.
Since dipping his toes in the field, the widely respected figure has captured the interest of would-be boxers and established fighters because of his distinctive approach to teaching and the effort he extends toward ensuring that every student grows in skill and embraces a go-getter attitude. Additionally, Coach Anthony has gained considerable attention for going against the grain and setting up a space where driven individuals could learn how to dominate the ring while under their own roof.
“I have trained some of the best fighters in the sport,” shared Coach Anthony, who has helped the rise of a long list of titleholders, including the current IBF Super Featherweight Champion Tevin ‘The American Idol’ Farmer, former USBA Heavyweight Champion Eddie Chambers, USBA Featherweight Champion Eric Hunter, current UBF Lightweight World Champion Hank Lundy, and former Strikeforce Light Heavyweight and Rising Heavyweight Grand Prix Champion Muhammed Lawal. “I am sharing that information online so that the everyday guy can learn the skills of boxing at home.”
A firm believer that learning and personal growth are possible outside the four walls of the gym, Coach Anthony wields the power of digital technology to connect with students, facilitate sessions, and share his expertise. Right now, he offers a lifetime membership to his signature course, allowing fighters and boxers to stream over 350 training videos, enroll in the CA Boxing Community, and more.
Apart from teaching the technical know-how of the game, Coach Anthony also goes the extra mile in instilling in his students and promoting a set of values that has enabled him to reach great heights. “For the past 20 years, I have been able to stay ahead because of the love of what I do. Consistency, honesty, and hard work have also kept me going.”
Despite the years he has dedicated to helping boxers evolve into standout fighters, Coach Anthony shows no sign of slowing down. In the years to come, he plans to remain at the forefront and propel more toward success.
