The Otomí ceremonial center-  the engine room of Boxing work ethic 

The vestiges and influences of the pre-Hispanic cultures,  are the essential ‘X on the map,  to understand the past and evolving present of Mexico.

A powerful portal of this foundation stone, is the majestic Otomí Ceremonial Center, located in the municipality of Temoaya, 37 kilometers from the city of Toluca in the State of Mexico. A monument that was built incorporating the architectural traditions of this community.

The Otomí Ceremonial Center, which opened in 1980, is not only limited to function as  a meeting place for the Otomí people who reside in its  surroundings, but also a focal point, providing  the possibility of enjoying it as a recreation center and of course as a center of training for high performance athletes.
This is because it is 3,200 meters above sea level, conditions that favor athletes in their training.

A great complement to this emblematic place is the high-performance gym remodeled in 2017 and located in the heart of the Otomí Ceremonial Center. This complete venue is named after the man who transformed boxing, José Sulaimán.

The Otomì, as it is known, has become the favorite of many world champions and future monarchs, national and international, as the place meets all the requirements to arrive in optimal conditions to their respective fights.
Some of the fighters who have trained at the Otomí Ceremonial Center were:

Julio César Chávez, Erik Morales, Marco Antonio Barrera, Jorge Arce, Carlos Cuadras Julio César Chávez Jr., Jose Luis Castillo, Juan Francisco Estrada, Moises Fuentes, Rocky Hernandez, David Picasso, among so many others.
