Today we had one of our most poignant talks of the entire series, as the session began with Jill Diamond remembering all our dear coaches who have left us in recent days, also informing us that Francisco Méndez from New York, had passed away some hours ago.

Francisco bettered the lives of several of our panelists, so it was a very emotional moment for all of us. Today, we remember with affection, we honor with much respect and we recognize those who are no longer with us. People who dedicated their lives to building a better world and who now motivate us to continue their legacy.

We urge the boxing community to follow this talk and to do their best each and every day.
