At just 22 years old, Omar Juarez, better known as “El Relampago” is no flash in the pan!
already an idol in his native Brownsville, Texas, this boxing wunderkind won the first title of the WBC, which he considers the zenith, by defeating the dangerous Ryan Karl, crowning himself as international monarch in the welterweight division.
After this great victory, Omar was received by his people as a hero and despite all of his achievements and successes, he retains and maintains his humility, support and love for the place he grew up.
With applause, ovations and hundreds of people who came to cheer him, Omar promises to continue working hard and with discipline, so that the next time he returns home, he will do so with the Absolute Green and Gold crown.
At the WBC, we feel deeply proud of Omar, as he is an example for many young prospects, proving that dreams can come true as long as you work with talent, passion and dedication. Congratulations!
