Khalil Coe is an American professional boxer who currently fights in the light-heavyweight division.

Early life

[edit]

Coe has revealed that he learned to fight at a very young age due to the rough area he grew up. His mother put him in boxing because he kept getting into street fights.[1]

Amateur career

[edit]

Coe had a very successful amateur career. The highlight was when he took part in the Chemistry Cup in Germany. Not only did Coe win the overall tournament but he became the first man to stop 2 time gold medalist Julio Cesar La Cruz. Coe was also a part of the U. S national team. He was unable to qualify for the Olympics due to his criminal record.[2]

Professional career

[edit]

Coe signed with Eddie Hearn immediately after turning pro. Coe made his debut against Nathaniel Tadd on the undercard of Devin Haney vs Jorge Linares. He stopped Tadd in the second round after dropping him with a body shot.[3] Coe suffered a setback in his second fight on the undercard of Julio Cesar Martinez vs McWilliams Arroyo. He was held to a draw by journeyman Aaron Casper.[4] Coe won his next 7 fights before taking on unbeaten Juan Gerardo Osuna on the undercard of Conor Benn vs Peter Dobson. Coe put on his best pro performance yet dropping Osuna 3 times and stopping him in the third.[5]
