Regis Prograis had a special surprise for Mom on Christmas Day.
The junior welterweight contender gave his mother a key to a new home.
“Just bought my momma a brand new house from the ground up,” Prograis wrote on Twitter. “She had no idea what kind of Christmas gift she was getting. We made her go through a few loops but she finally got her key.”

The New Orleans native is coming off a close decision loss to Josh Taylor in a thrilling World Boxing Super Series final in London. Despite the loss, which also cost him his title, Prograis significantly raised his profile and earned a career payday.
He is expected to be back in the ring in the spring, according to his handlers.
