Bouncing around the ring at the Baltimore Boxing Club gym in Fells Point, Joe Veazey feels at home.
Veazey’s father, Vince, is a former fighter. So for years, Joe, now 13, and his brother Sean, now 11, have been hanging around the gym, sparring and hitting the bag.
“The gym was their babysitter,” Vince said with a laugh.
Now Joe is making a name for himself on the national level.
