Today the World Boxing Council wants to recognize the efforts of our former champion, Guadalupe “Lupita” Martínez, as stories like her`s inspire us to give of our best for the benefit of those we love.
Guadalupe “Lupita” Martínez, mother of two beautiful children, found in the ring the opportunity to give them a better life; However, not everything was easy, as the lack of time, her multiple occasions and other obligations, did not allow her to have enough time to train.
This is how she began a professional career full of ups and downs. And after 5 years, she finally got her title opportunity against a historic fighter, Zulina Muñoz.
Despite her multiple occupations, “Lupita” knew that this was her golden opportunity, since achieving victory would position her on the world stage and benefit her beloved family.
With her gloves full of hopes and ambition, next to a work team that always believed in her, “Lupita” Martínez became super flyweight world champion against all odds in 2017. She defended her crown on six wonderful occasions representing her belt with great pride, courage and true to style, always going forward.
Last weekend, Lourdes Juárez, with a great performance, managed to defeat Martínez. Guadalupe accepted defeat with honor, dignity and maturity. She whole heartedly congratulated the new champion on her brilliant performance and wished her luck.
The World Boxing Council wants to recognize her effort and her entire spell as a champion, but above all, the love she has for her children, who were/are/ and will be her main engine to achieve fantastic feats.
