Isaac Castan is not only no boxing. He is tested by Brawler’s battle with over 100 experiences of experience-now the father and mentor of the 12-year-old sensation of Romin “Bambita” Castan, who will debut on Saturday with the controversial pro.

Known in Veracruz as “Bamba”, 37-year-old Southpaw quietly built a combat CV, which covers 15 years, 23 duels and nine knockouts, many arriving after returning to the ring to 2024 after a long release.

Castan made his debut in 2009 and since then he fought in a lightweight welterweight to the average medium division, regularly mixing it with complex opposition in Mexico, and even fighting in Canada.

His record 14-8-1 may not shout the world champion, but his perseverance and the ability to autopromota made him a respected figure on the regional scene.

Isaac Castan: A warrior who raised a warrior

More importantly, Isaac is now the driving force of the most-spoken newborn talent in Mexico-Romin “Bambita” Castan, which caused global confusion, announcing his professional debut at the age of only 12 years.

He is not just her father. He is her motivation.

“It all started as a hobby,” Romina said, “But since I started training boxing at the age of six, I knew that I wanted to do it.”

“Thanks to my father and trainer Isaac” La Bamba “Castan for trusting me and the whole work, which we have been doing for several years. I promise I won’t let you down. “

The statement caused the indignation of outstanding boxing characters – including the promoter Lou Dibella, who slammed this move as “barbaric”.

Romina Castan’s debut at 12

Despite this, Castan remains unmoved, standing with his daughter when he breaks one of the most controversial barriers in contemporary boxing.

While Castan is still fighting-the last win in the third round of TKO in June-a real heritage can be found in the shade of the rapidly growing star of his daughter.

He did not reject any challenge in the ring, and now Romina’s fearless path seems to be. However, it may be symbolic that he will not appear on the same card as Romina this weekend, because it gives his daughter her own spotlight lightweight.

From the weaker journeyman to the father of the youngest boxing professional, the story of Isaac Castan is no longer only his own. This is a two -political saga developing after the round.
