Imperial Finance & Trading, LLC Welcomes Boxing Champ Erik “The Viking” Leander as Motivational Speaker

BOCA RATON, Fla.--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--Imperial Finance and Trading, LLC, a leader in premium finance for life insurance products and structured settlements, provided through its licensed affiliates, invites five-time undefeated professional boxer, Erik “The Viking” Leander as a motivational speaker for its employees on the importance of goals, striving for excellence, and living a healthy and balanced lifestyle.

“In two years I will be the Heavy Weight Champion of the World”

Leander has ramped up his aggressive workout routine for a televised fight airing live February 20, 2008 on ESPN 2 Friday Night Fights, from the University Center Arena of Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Imperial managed to knockout a few hours out of his intense 8-hour-a-day training schedule for him to speak to its Structured Settlements division.

“In two years I will be the Heavy Weight Champion of the World,” announced Leander. “When you love what you do and you have discipline, achieving your goals becomes easy!” “In boxing you train for two months for a fight that could last as little as two seconds in the ring,” he continued. “Each time I step into the ring I put my pride on the line.”

Born and raised in Boca Raton, Florida, “The Viking” started his career training two-time Heavy Weight Champion of the World, Shannon Briggs. Recently, Erik trained actor Mickey Rourke for his Academy Award-nominated role in Darren Aronofsky’s The Wrestler. Throughout his life, Leander has concentrated on promoting a healthy well-being through the services he provides others, from managing his own gym to customizing specialized meal plans for his clients. All of these successes have guided him in his pursuit of boxing infamy.

“I was deeply impressed with Erik’s drive and enthusiasm, how his goals in life were set long ago, and how he lives each day moving closer and closer towards his dream. Immediately, he embodied motivation,” said Deborah Benaim, Senior Vice President.

Showing their support, Imperial purchased ten pairs of VIP tickets for the televised bout on the 20th that were made available after Erik gave his speech.
