Originally from Las Vegas, Nevada, David Banks has been fighting
professionally for only 2 years, and prior to fighting
professionally, he has not had any previous amateur fighting
experience. Due to Banks' raw talent and athletic ability, he
considers himself an upset specialist and does not mind coming
in as the underdog.
Banks' recent fight against Peter Manfredo on ESPN helped him
land a spot on "The Contender."
The birth of Banks' son, David III, motivated him to begin a
boxing career, and currently, remains his constant inspiration.
As Banks never knew his own father who died before he was even
born, he possesses a passion for helping children.
Banks resides in Portland, Oregon, with his fiancé and three
year old son, David III.
