Gary Antuanne Russell (born June 14, 1996) is an American professional boxer. As an amateur, he represented the United States in the light welterweight division at the 2016 Summer Olympics, but was controversially eliminated in the third bout.[2] He is the younger brother of former WBC featherweight champion Gary Russell Jr.[3]
All five brothers in his family are named Gary after their father Gary Russell, Sr. Four of them are competitive boxers, trained by their father.[4] On May 20, 2017, he won his professional debut by first-round technical knockout (TKO).[5]
