Miami (Oktobra 26, 2016) — Internationally renowned boxing trainer Orlando Cuellar has come full circle, right back to the famed 5faha- St. Gym in South Beach, where he once visited as a teenager to learn and now trains fighters out of six days a week.
Born in Havana, Kiobà, Cuellar’s family resettled in Miami when he was three with Orlando living there through high school. Amin'ny maha-matihanina mpanao ady totohondry, Cuellar vividly remembers watching boxers at 5faha- St. Gym such as Cassius Clay, Willie Pastrano, Vinnie Curto ary Florentino Fernandez, as well as legendary trainers, brothers Angelo ary Chris Dundee.
“I watched and learned, picking up as much as much as I could,” Hoy Cuellar. “Ankehitriny, I find myself working out of the 5faha- St. Gym for the past six weeks. It’s been an incredible experience. Isan'andro, you never know who is going to walk through the doors there. It’s been one of the best boxing gyms in the world for more than 50 taona. From the days dating back to Muhammad Ali, fighters have been attracted to this gym because of its rich history and great sparring, as well as to the area with South Beach’s restaurants, clubs and beach. The warm, humid weather also makes it easier for fighters to lose weight running and training.
“(TOMPON'NY) Dino Spencer is carrying on the 5faha- St. Gym’s tradition. Everyday I’m there is exciting for me. Mixed ethnic groups train there and it’s a magnet for talent. There’s sparring three days a week – I call it Spar-a-rama – and everybody’s welcome to challenge themselves. The sparring is better than a lot of TV fights.
“5faha- St. Gym trainer Guy Laieta had been trying to convince me to join the team for the last five years. I spoke to Dino on several occasions, expressing my desire to train fighters out of the 5faha- St. Gym. He said, ‘Let’s do it.’ The success of the 5faha- St. Gym today has a lot to do with ownership. Dino has a passion for boxing and he is very hospitable, which trickles down to his staff and fighters. Good vibes all of the time!”
Cuellar left for Las Vegas in 1976 ary, after he realized that being a boxer wasn’t in his best interest, he started training fighters there in 1981 out of Johnny Garcia’s Gym. A year later, he shifted his base Brooklyn and started training fighters out of another boxing icon, Gleason ny Gym. Amin'ny 2000, he resettled in Miami.
Best known as world light heavyweight champion the head trainer of Glen Johnson, Cuellar also worked with future champions such as Nicolas Walters, Rances Barthelemy ary Erslandy Lara, ary koa Luis Franco, Aaron Davis ary Juan Carlos Gomez, to name a few of the more notables. Amin'izao fotoana izao, he’s the chief second for several top fighters including Antonio Tarver.
Recognized throughout boxing as a superior teacher, Cuellar’s success is mostly attributed to his training of fighters on an individual basis, focusing on their personal needs rather than giving all fighters the same instructions and attention.
“Each fighter needs personal and specific work to complement their God-given talents,” Cuellar explained. “You can’t teach all fighters the same way. I specialize on what I call old school meets new school. Old school was upfront and personal to go 15 fihodinana, new school is about throwing more punches, more foot movement and fighting from the outside. I teach doffense: defense + offense. Punches aren’t vitamins, none should be taken. Boxing is little more than a battle of reflexes; one fighters versus another, but the real trick is how the fighter uses his reflexes. I teach my fighters how to turn the ring apron into a minefield.”
Boxing has played a huge role in Cuellar’s life. Back in the 5faha- St. Gym is just another chapter in his unique life.
“I live through my fighters,” Cuellar concluded. “Every victory is my proudest moment. There are no big or little victories, every win is a happy moment because of all the hard work and sacrifices me and my fighter made during training camp.”
Orlando Cuellar is thrilled to have gone back to the future.

“I had a hard life so yes, I am angry with him.” – Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr.
“I had all Mexico and the world at my feet at that time. But it still didn’t fill the void…So what was it that I looked for? The easiest and stupidest things…drugs and alcohol.” – Julio Cesar Chavez, Sr.
NEW YORK (Aprily 7, 2015) –The Sports Emmy® Nahazo loka series ALL FAHAZOANA returns to examine the life of Mexican superstar Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr., as he prepares to make his SHOWTIME tompon-daka ady totohondry® debut against dangerous brawler Andrzej Fonfara amin'ny Asabotsy, Aprily 18, velona FOTOANA FAMPISEHOANA (10 p.m. SY/ 7 p.m. PT) avy amin'ny StubHub Center ao Carson, Kalifornia.

ALL FAHAZOANA: Chavez is written and reported by SHOWTIME Sports contributor Mark Kriegel. Author of acclaimed biographies “The Good Son: The Life of Ray ‘Boom Boom’ Mancini” and “Pistol: The Life of Pete Maravich,” Kriegel has long focused on the conflicts and complexities that beset fathers and sons in sports.
With unprecedented access to the young star–Mexico’s first and only middleweight world champion–and his famous father, ALL FAHAZOANAuncovers the stormy yet loving relationship between Junior and his legendary father.
No question remains unanswered in a series of interviews at Junior’s high-altitude camp in Lake Tahoe, where his father once trained. What was it like to grow up as the son of Mexico’s greatest fighter? What price does a fighter pay for drugs and alcohol? And what does it do to his family?
Only the ending remains in doubt: Is Junior being punished for the sins of his father, or is he doomed to repeat them?
“Fame can be a disease, like addiction,” says Kriegel. “And this family has battled both. Junior and Senior weren’t merely candid. They were confessional. Ary, Heveriko fa, courageous, too.”
Amin'ny ALL FAHAZOANA cameras entrenched in camp, viewers will meet three generations of Mexico’s most famous fighting family as the 29-year-old Junior navigates a crossroads of his career.
ALL FAHAZOANA: CHAVEZ premieres on SHOWTIME with multiple encore presentations. ALL FAHAZOANA will be available on SHOWTIME ON DEMAND®, SHOWTIME amin'ny fotoana rehetra® ary amin'ny internet ao amin'nySHO.com/Sports.
