They call him Rocky

"The future of amateur boxing," according to one local promoter, is this sweet-faced third grader who loves his sister and his parents and lunch. Thomas Kinchen was just 5 when he asked his parents if he could learn to box. At 8, he's still undefeated in the ring and promoter Sarg Farris says he has all the power he needs to be great. Thomas, in the meantime, would rather you called him "Rocky."
