Heavyweight Boxer To Begin Training At FCW This Month

In an interview with BoxingScene.com, heavyweight boxing contender Monte “Two Gunz” Barrett announced that he’s heading to train at WWE’s developmental territory at the end of October.

Barrett, whose professional record is 35-9-2 (with 20 knockouts), recently scored a unanimous decision win over rival David Tua last month, will be heading to Florida Championship Wrestling in Tampa for two weeks next month and will later return for a two month period. Barrett told BoxingScene.com:

“I gotta call [WWE senior director of talent relations] Ty Bailey this week and go through some of the particulars, but I know whatever it’s gonna be, it will be a lot of hard work. I told him I will commit 110% and put my best foot forward with everything that I do.”

The 40-year-old Barrett is a friend of John Cena and recently told Boxing Scene that he’s interested in fighting David Tua once again at WrestleMania 28 – and would do so inside a steel cage.
