Introducing the real Stephane Malenou

In the sport of boxing, you have to look beneath the surface.

When I first crossed paths with Cameroon-born Stephane Malenou earlier this week in Las Vegas, I didn’t know what to expect.

Campaigning as a welterweight with a modest 10-6-1 record with 3 knockouts, I wasn’t taken aback by Malenou’s story at first, but I admit he has grown on me quickly over the past few days.

You have to know how to not only survive but also thrive in this game, and that is exactly what Malenou has been doing.

Check out the photos below for a sneak peak at Stephane in action and stay tuned for several more updates in the coming weeks as we will be revealing his story in-depth.

Please follow Stephane on Twitter / Facebook / www.StephaneMalenou.com
