Dorchester has seen it’s fair share of promising fighters over the years. Many of whom never made it to the big stage for a host of different reasons. Some may have traveled the wrong path or decided they couldn’t weather the financial hardship involved with

A fellow Dot Rat, Boston Police officer and pro boxer Billy “Sugah” Traft was weighed in this afternoon at The Banshee Irish pub in Dorchester. Plenty of Billy’s fellow Dot Rats were on hand to show support.

Billy will be fighting tomorrow night at the first ever boxing match staged at Gillette Stadium. As if cutting weight was not enough to deal with Bill had a film crew following him around today. TNT and Donnie Wahlberg are teaming up to create a show on the Boston Police. Who better to showcase than a gang unit officer and pro boxer from Wahlberg’s neighborhood.
