Life

Vít Král was born on 22 March 1992 in Brno. He was a student of the Ludvík Daňek Sports High School. In his childhood, he was first involved in football. He has doing boxing since he was ten years old. His coach was his father Vít Král Sr., former champion of Czechoslovakia. As an extraordinary talent, he was able to box thanks to a Czech boxing association exemption at the Czech Senior Championships (men), where he fought for the first time at the age of fifteen, but was defeated on points in the 57 kilograms (125.66 pounds) category.

However, an injury to his right wrist (fracture of the scaphoid ) and a dislocated shoulder limited the promising development of his career. He had three operations related to his injuries. After healing these injuries, he bounced back by winning the Czech Republic men's championship in 2012. He also boxed in the Czech national tournament for the Prostějov boxing club DTJ Prostějov and Rohovník Armex Děčín. After finishing his active career, he has been coaching and working with young boxers. He works as a coach in the Kometa Boxing Brno club. Among his charges is also Jindřich Janečka.
