Blair Cobbs is cranking up the volume in his boxing career, and he’s doing it by teaming up with none other than boxing legend Don King. At 34, Cobbs, hailing from Philadelphia, PA, is not just twiddling his thumbs. With a solid record of 16 wins, 1 loss, and 1 draw, including 10 victories by knockout, he’s still the reigning champ of the WBC-NABF welterweight division.
Cobbs is itching to dive back into the fray. “I’m all set for a comeback,” Cobbs declares. Joining forces with Don King is like hitting the jackpot for him. And let’s not even get started on Adrien Broner. According to Cobbs, Broner seems to prefer squabbles on social media over actual fistfights in the ring. Cobbs is ready to prove who the real champion is, face-to-face.
He’s not just looking for any fight; he wants the big, thrilling battles that get fans on their feet. Cobbs is on a mission to bring the raw, unfiltered excitement back to boxing, starting with a showdown against Broner. “This is where the real show begins. Whooo!” he exclaims.
Don King is equally excited about this partnership, ready to inject some of that signature “flair” back into Cobbs’s approach.
Cobbs’s skills were on full display in his last fight on August 6, 2022, where he clinched a 10-round unanimous victory against Maurice Hooker, a formidable opponent with a record that boasted only one loss in 32 fights.
Despite facing his first career defeat to Alexis Rocha on March 19, 2022, Cobbs took the challenge head-on with barely a week’s notice. His charisma alone was enough to pack the arena.
Cobbs clinched the North American Boxing Federation Junior Welterweight title on March 21, 2019, by outboxing Ferdinand Kerobyan. Since then, he has successfully defended his title three times, showcasing his prowess with two knockouts and one decision victory.
