This morning from the beautiful country of Panama, the presentation of a new era for Panamanian boxing called “Hot Boxing.”
Promoter Sampson Lewkowicz, who is thrilled about this resurgence of boxing in Panama, says this country is a great place for producing champions and that as of today the world will know the talent of its boxers.
He added that these cards are sponsored by Caliente who without thinking twice endeavored in favor of boxing. He also explained that the first show will take place on August 13, starring Jaimito Arboleada against Jonathan Barros and representing women’s boxing Nataly Delgado against Gabriela Fundora, who has just made her professional debut.
This is the first of six events that will take place in the next 10 months and which will be broadcast through TyC Sports network.
For WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman, this announcement is very important not only for Panamanian boxing but for that of the whole world, because this type of effort and initiatives are so needed, especially after such a complicated year for everyone where the Covid-19 pandemic has hit our beloved sport hard.
“I am very happy to be part of this important event, because this announcement is a manifestation of goodwill and the need to activate boxing worldwide, Panama is a land of champions and I am sure that the new idols will emerge”-he commented-
He recalled that unforgettable visit to the President of Panama, Doctor Laurentino Cortizo, to whom he presented a world champion belt, the famous “Green and Gold.”
A visit that the WBC leader recalled as a watershed heralding this moment that we live today, because Panama was one of the founding countries of the WBC almost six decades ago, recalling also the great Panamanian champions, among them: Roberto Durán, Ismael Laguna, Hilario Zapata and many others who are remembered with great pride.
This is how Panama returns to the forefront elite of the boxing stages with highly competitive cards that we are sure will be seen by millions of boxing fans.
