LARRY ARMY JR., ESQ. - MANAGER
Larry Army Jr. always thought his career in professional sports would revolve around basketball, not boxing.
Army has been a certified NBA (National Basketball Association) player agent since 1994 And while he always has been an aficionado of boxing, it wasn’t until 2005 that Army began to move from fan to active participant. It was that year Army--lawyer, developer, financier, realtor, husband, father and generally considered to be of sound mind--decided he wanted to box. So, he had his one and only amateur bout. Soon after he determined his role in boxing lay outside the ring.
Less than two years later Army launched his managerial career with two-time national amateur middleweight champion Edwin Rodriguez. Both live in Worcester, Mass., and Army had been following Rodriguez’s career for several years.
"I’ve never been involved in anything as fascinating and exciting as boxing nor anything as rewarding as my relationship with Edwin and his family,” says Army. “I have no doubt that the principals which have served me well in my other endeavors, diligence, imagination and integrity, will do the same in boxing.”
When not attending to Rodriguez or his numerous enterprises, Army enjoys golf as well as boating and traveling with his wife, Kelly, and his daughter, Isabella.
Army, who was born and raised in Massachusetts, graduated from Seton Hall in New Jersey and Suffolk University Law School in Boston.
