Mexican boxer Marco Verde had an outstanding performance at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, reaching the final in the 71 kg category, where he ultimately lost to a competitor from Uzbekistan. Despite winning the silver medal after a unanimous loss of 5-0, there remained uncertainty about his future in boxing.
In a recent post, Marco Verde announced that he will join Canelo's team to start his professional career, with Eddy Reynoso as his manager. He thanked his coach Radamés Hernández for taking him to the Olympics and confirmed that he will continue training in Mazatlán. Verde is looking forward to 2025 to find out if boxing will remain part of the Olympic Games.
Regarding the exclusion of boxing from the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games, there is no official confirmation yet, but it is rumored that this discipline will not be present at the Olympic event. This is due to financial problems within the International Boxing Association, which led the International Olympic Committee not to consider boxing in the Los Angeles 2028 program. The final decision will be announced in 2025.
The Paris 2024 Olympic Games left fans with thrilling stories and remarkable achievements, among which the participation of Marco Verde stands out.
