GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) - After becoming just the sixth heavyweight ever to win both the National Golden Gloves title and the U.S. National Boxing title in the same year, Hudsonville native Jordan Shimmell is still training.

He is getting set to represent the U.S. in Italy next week, and perhaps at the Olympics in London in 2012.
