At this point in his professional boxing career, Brandon Berry knows he has to take a chance.
The West Forks native has won 20 pro fights, including his last seven. If Berry wants to defend the Universal Boxing Organization All-American welterweight title he won last November, he knows he’ll need to fight tougher competition. That’s why Berry, 33, is taking on 18-year old Gael Ibarra in his first title defense Saturday at the SportsZone in Derry, New Hampshire.
