FOBA (Fres Oquendo Boxing Academy) was founded in 2009, began as a vision of Fres Oquendo to provide a program that offers a full spectrum of services to prepare the youth for success. Becoming a professional athlete at the age of 22, Fres quickly realized he wasn’t’ equipped to manage his success. FOBA was designed to help those involved in the program to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to become champions in life whether they are doctors, lawyers, entrepreneurs or parents, thus becoming ambassadors in our programs and leaders in the community.
