Chris Romulo was born in Queens, not exactly the easiest of areas to grow up.
He found his way into Muay Thai kickboxing simply because he got into a street fight, and ended up with a shattered eye socket, a broken nose and a bruised spirit. He didn't want to be afraid anymore. Romulo began his amateur career 1996 at age 21 .
In 2003, Romulo began training under Jason Strout. That same year, they worked together to develop Church Street Boxing Gym's first Muay Thai program. Romulo's amateur career included five titles.
As a professional fighter, Romulo's record was 13–3 [10 KOs] his accolades include:
- WKA super middleweight North American title in 2010.
- US National Championship
- North American Championship
- Bronze medal in Bangkok in the World Cup.
After retiring from a 16 year fighting career, he now "fights" with his words through the "Champ Up" program as a youth empowerment speaker! Speaking at over 55 schools in the last year!
