Success in Puerto Rico from the “Ring to Social Network” seminar
The day was part of the “WBO Give Back” program, which was of great importance for his effort to provide practical tools for fighters so that they could develop integral in both four -sided and society.
The World Boxing Organization (WBO) again meant a guideline with its social commitment, gathering over a hundred professional and boxers fans in the seminar, which left their trail on Puerto Rico. According to the presidency of Puerto Rican Gustavo Olivieri, the agency presented the conversation entitled “From the ring to social networks”, which offered participants a recent and necessary vision of effective and legal management of digital platforms in the life of an athlete.
The day was part of the “WBO Give Back” program, which was of great importance for his effort to provide practical tools for fighters so that they could develop integral in both four -sided and society.
The initiative has been applauded by trainers, leaders and boxers who recognize that up-to-date times require preparation outside physical training and competition.
During the conversation, outstanding professionals, such as Frances Lee Reyes, María Rivera and Verónica Silva from Magnet Company, shared the concepts about the importance of the work of the athlete’s image in all their aspects. His exhibition emphasized the need to strengthen the personal brand as a bridge to maximize the possibilities of sponsorship, cooperation with companies and generating income. Similarly, the value of consistency between what boxer designs in the ring and what it sends on social networks has been emphasized, understood today as a global presentation.
For his part, the lawyer Ketzia Rosario Rodríguez from Alberto Rodríguez Law Offices turned to the legal aspects related to the protection of the image of athletes. He emphasized that every boxer must be aware of their rights and the legal scope of their publication, contracts and the exploit of content, because carelessness in this field can bring vital consequences in the career of every athlete.
The activity took place at the Muñíz Souffirt at the Ana G. Méndez University, Couey Emplace and distinguished by the vigorous participation of society. Participants of the boxers not only received academic orientation, but also could share their experiences and explain doubts with specialists. The atmosphere was described as motivating and enriching, in dynamics that mixed teaching with nearby interaction.
The seminar also served as a space for providing free training teams to participants, a gesture that was grateful for youthful boxers who often do not have high -quality resources. This detail strengthened the central message that the development of the athlete must be comprehensive, from technical preparation to personal and social strengthening.
It should be remembered that on June 28 WBO has already presented another educational conversation under the same program “WBO DA” entitled “How to protect your money outside the ring.” On this occasion, the speakers emphasized the importance of financial planning, budgeting and construction of a solid economic base, which allows athletes to prepare for the future. The continuity of these activities confirms that the agency is trying to go beyond the administration of the championships and belts.
OMB’s social effort is directed to a boxer, has complementary training that allows him to move in his life with greater preparation and awareness. At a time when exhibition in the media can define a career, the orientation received in “from the ring to social networks” draws enormous value for youthful people who dream of reaching the summit and for those professionals who are already traveling on a demanding path and a lasting public exhibition.
OMB still makes a difference in free educational programs that are looking for their athletes to grow as competitors and citizens. A positive response to the seminar confirms that the message was sturdy and vivid, generating additional motivation for projects that the agency will continue to promote for the benefit of the boxing community.
Skye Nicolson came close to winning the world featherweight title with a dominant points win over Mariah Turner in Melbourne on Wednesday.
Nicolson (16-1, 3 KO) defended her interim WBC featherweight crown, winning every round against Turner (12-2, 6 KO) at The Melbourne Pavilion.
Nicolson’s excellent boxing skills were on display from the first round, keeping her opponent at bay from her probing jab.
The 30-year-old southpaw, who won the interim belt in December with a unanimous decision victory over Yuliahn Luna Avila, bloodied Turner’s nose in the third round after a series of successful left hands.
The former featherweight world champion rocked her opponent with a straight left hand in the sixth gesture, but the “Golden Girl” responded with a left hook of her own, sending Nicolson falling to the ropes.
Nicolson returned to boxing backwards in the seventh round and circumscribed her opponent’s success.
Turner’s nose remained bloody over the last few rounds, and the 31-year-old was unable to make up the loss.
The Novel Zealander’s suffering deepened in the final round when she was deducted a point for using her head.
Three scores of 90-89 confirmed the victory of Nicolson, who announced a fight with the undisputed super bantamweight champion, Ellie Scotney after the fight.

Eddie Hearn did not contact Deontay Wilder about fighting Anthony Joshua after signing a contract to fight Tyson Fury, his manager Shelly Finkel claims.
There has been speculation that Joshua could return against Wilder before he faces Fury.
Instead, the 36-year-old will return to the ring on July 25 against Kristian Prengi, before facing Fury in November.
Wilder called out longtime rival “AJ” after his victory over Derek Chisora earlier this month.
The pair have been linked to a clash since both men held world heavyweight titles in 2018, and Finkel believes Joshua had no interest in fighting the “Bronze Bomber.”
“You can’t be disappointed with something that never happened,” Finkel said Heavenly sports.
“Eddie never contacted us and Joshua obviously had no intention of fighting Deontay Wilder.
“Same antique story, just modern date.”
Joshua and Wilder were scheduled to fight in March 2024, but the American was defeated by Joseph Parker in December 2023.
“AJ” will fight for the first time since he knocked out Jake Paul in the sixth round in December.
Ten days later, the two-time world heavyweight champion was involved in a tragic car accident that killed two of his close friends and left him with minor injuries.
Saudi Arabian boxing boss Turki Alalshikh announced that Joshua and Fury have signed a contract for their mega fight in a post on the website X on Monday, which read: “To my friends in the UK – it’s happening. This is signed.

Moments later, Joshua’s return was announced against unknown Albanian Prengi.
“It’s no secret that I’ve taken some time to consolidate and rebuild to be ready to get back into the ring, and today is the next step in that journey,” Joshua said.
“I am delighted to have agreed to a multi-fight contract starting on July 25 in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
“I’m looking forward to competing and continuing where I left off.
“Like I said. The landlord will collect rent. That’s for sure.”
Fury defeated Arslanbek Makhmudov on points in his return to the ring following his retirement earlier this year.
“The Gypsy King” called “AJ”, who was watching the gala from the side of the ring, and declared that he would retire again if the fight with his rival did not take place.
However, his manager Spencer Brown revealed that he may fight again ahead of his fight with Joshua.
