Coach Jonny

Coach Jonathan has been a proud USA Boxing coach for over 10 years. He began his journey at Arvin Boxing under Mark Marquez, later teaming up with Daniel Alcala to form Kern County Fight Club.

When the pandemic forced the club to close, he continued learning under veteran coaches who trained national champions and professional fighters.

Over the years, Jonathan has cornered professional fighters in Mexico, Arizona, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles, gaining valuable experience at the highest levels of the sport.

 In addition to coaching, he became a USA Boxing official, judging fights and further deepening his knowledge of the sport.

In 2021, Jonathan founded and now runs Bakersfield Boxing Academy, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit gym dedicated to mentoring youth through the discipline of boxing. Under his leadership, the Academy has developed four Open Team fighters and continues to shape a roster of disciplined athletes committed to growth, both inside and outside the ring.
