Cruiserweight Knockout Artist Carita Sets Team With Hiring of Connecticut Trio

Published by Shawn C.

Boston’s Vinnie Carita (24-1-1, 23 KOs) is no stranger to taking care
of business inside the ring. With a knockout rate of nearly 89%, Carita is
one of New England’s most explosive finishers. A lifelong boxer, after
finishing an amateur career with over 100 fights, Carita has won the WBC
Latino Cruiserweight TITLE and the ABF Continental Americas Cruiserweight
Title within the last two years.

Though not being active in the ring since 2019 due to the COVID-19 Global
Pandemic, Carita has been working on bolstering his team outside of the
ring with the hiring of Danbury, CT. based boxing advisor A.J. Galante and
trainers Dave McDonough and Bennie Little. Galante said he was initially
shocked to hear that Carita wanted to meet him at his gym Champs Boxing
Club, located in Danbury, “I received a call from Vinnie’s most recent
trainer Jason Bailey who had just recently moved to California. He told me
Vinnie was interested in working with our team here. I was a bit taken back
being that we are 3 plus hours from Boston, but I was extremely excited at
the prospect and challenge in working with a guy like Vinnie. I truly
believe he’s a diamond in the rough and I know our team can help get him to
the next level.” Working Carita’s corner will be long time trainers Dave
McDonough and Bennie Little, who also train rising prospect Omar Bordoy Jr
(10-1), Geoffrey Then (1-0), Troy Artis (5-9-1) and newly crowned New
England Heavyweight Champion Mike Marshall (4-1), among others.

The Promotional Free Agent Carita feels he is set up for a breakout year in
2021, “I’m truly excited to be working with AJ, Dave and Bennie. The past
few months I’ve been training in Danbury and we have all cliqued right
away. For the majority of my career I’ve had to do everything essentially
alone, but I finally feel I have a team that can help me get to bigger and
better things.”
