The World Boxing Council (WBC) commemorative belts, on May 5 and September 16, were created as a special trophy, awarded to the winner of great fights held around these two Mexican festivals, regardless of nationality.<\/p>\n

This concept was created in 2017, and each year a Mexican culture is selected to create these belts. So far there are already nine officially presented belts: Huichol Belt I and II, Chiapaneco Belt I and II, Maya Belt I and II,; Mazahua and Otom\u00ed, and Mestizo.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The tenth commemorative belt of the WBC, with the support of the Government of the State of Mexico, is the \u201cTehotihuacan\u201d; and is inspired by one of the most iconic cultures in history.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

About the Teotihuacan culture<\/strong><\/p>\n

The city of Teotihuac\u00e1n (The place where the Gods were created) is located about 50 km northeast of Mexico City. Built between the 1st and 7th centuries A.D, it is characterized by large monuments, in particular the Temple of Quetzalc\u00f3atl and the Pyramids of the Sun and the Moon, established on geometric and symbolic principles.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Teotihuac\u00e1n and its valley display unique testimony to the pre-urban structures of ancient Mexico. Its ceremonial ensemble represents a unique artistic achievement both for the enormous size of the monuments and for the spectacular layout based on cosmic harmony. The art of the Teotihuacanos was the most developed and advanced among the classical civilizations of Mexico and its influence is notable in other cultures.<\/p>\n

Quetzalc\u00f3atl also known as the \u201cFeathered Serpent\u201d, is a mixture of bird and rattlesnake. He is a pre-Hispanic god of learning, rain, wind, agriculture, and the arts, as well as the creator of the world and humanity.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The oldest representation of Quetzalc\u00f3atl is in Teotihuac\u00e1n where there are sculptures dating from the 3rd century. Teotihuac\u00e1n was the seat of power for one of the most influential Mesoamerican societies in the political, economic, commercial, religious and cultural spheres. Today, it represents a symbol of identity and strength of ancient Mexico.<\/p>\n

About the Teotihuacano belt<\/strong><\/p>\n

This beautiful belt is inspired by the greatness and majesty of the City of the Gods, Teotihuac\u00e1n and the power of Quetzalc\u00f3atl.<\/p>\n

This masterpiece is a special edition made by \u201cTaller de Obsidiana\u201d, a Mexican design firm that is an expert in maquila and creation of pieces made in obsidian with a legacy spanning three generations.<\/p>\n

The intricate brilliance is by Topacio and Gerardo Cuevas Campos, the craftsman Gerardo Cuevas N\u00e1jera and the leather and fittings are the work of the Cleto Reyes workshop.<\/p>\n

The belt is comprised of more than 40 pieces of golden obsidian, an iconic rock of this culture that was the cornerstone of the economy of that time. In the center are two snakes found head-on, with jade teeth. The depiction of Quetzalc\u00f3atl are part of the belt with a geometric framework alluding to the plumage of this deity.<\/p>\n

The golden obsidian and jade rhombuses are a geometry that refers to Teotihuacan mural painting. The piece incorporates brass details, as well as the iconic pyramid of the sun and the moon.<\/p>\n

The winner of Canelo vs. Plant will receive the Teotihuacano WBC belt<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sa\u00fal \u201cCanelo\u201d \u00c1lvarez (56-1-2, 38KOs) and Caleb Plant (21-0, 12KOs), will clash on November 6, in Las Vegas, for all the super middleweight belts.<\/p>\n
