In 2000, before launching his 7-year career as a professional prizefighter, he competed in the Olympic Trials for the ability to represent Team USA. He performed well, earning rights to an alternate position in the games in Sydney, Australia that year. 

Towards the end of his fast and furious boxing career, while undefeated at 18-0 in the wake of a victory over Jose Celaya, Webb returned home to Tennessee to receive a key to the city of Columbia and honors as a hometown hero. Today he embraces his role as part of boxing’s storied history and coaches fighters while creating easy-to-follow striking instruction in his video products.

Tim Webb's Best Fight of All Time

In May 2005, Tim Webb stepped up to take on the heavily favored Jose Celaya in a highly publicized match. Webb was down on the score cards moving into the later rounds, but was able to rally and secure the come-from-behind victory when he sent Celaya to the canvas. Unable to answer the referee’s call, a stunned Celaya lost the match by TKO. 

This match propelled Webb to even greater publicity and helped him set up his next match at Madison Square Garden in January of the following year. He also received a huge honor from his hometown of Columbia, Tennessee, in the form of a key to the city and an official day of recognition in his name. It’s hard to argue with this victory as the pinnacle of Webb’s impressive career.
