As a former National Boxing Association heavyweight champ he has a impressive record of 35 wins, 5 losses, and 27 knockouts, spanning nearly 17 years, giving him a resume that is unmatched in the sport. In addition to his devotion to boxing, Smith is known in his hometown as a hero – receiving a key to the city and his very own China Smith Day Parade — and a mentor to kids and young adults. China believes in “knocking out negativity” and encourages students to stay in school.
