Mental health is at the forefront of everything that we do at Athletes for Hope. Taking care of our mental health helps us build resilience, maintain healthy relationships, and lead balanced lives. Athletes for Hope and its thousands of athlete members are proud to join 555 Media and Athlete’s Choice Advisory to support this important event and the mental health of boxers, and people, from all walks of life.
- Jason Belinkie, Διευθύνων Σύμβουλος, Athletes for Hope

After promoting so many of the originalHollywood Fight Nightboxing shows in Hollywood, I am excited to return to my hometown and promote a special show that focuses on raising awareness to the very often ignored and overlooked aspect of mental health and wellness in the boxing industry. Together with 555 Media, we will continue to build on the long history of star-studded boxing events in Hollywood.
- Steve Bash, Bash Boxing

“Σε 2014, the WBC and WBC Cares joined with the USA Congressional Mental Health Task Force. We are grateful to Congresswoman Grace Napolitano and Mía St. John for bringing us together. Every May our athletes wear the green ribbon and dedicate their fights in our 176 countries to Mental Health Awareness. Mental Health is the core mission of WBC Cares.
- Τζιλ Ντάιμοντ, WBC Cares Global Chair

As the Chief Wellbeing Officer for Athletes for Hope, I believe it’s crucial to spotlight the mental health of boxers. Studies indicate that one in four people will struggle with mental health issues each year, and this is often magnified in high-intensity sports like boxing. The physical demands are well-known, but the mental resilience required is often overlooked. It’s time we break the silence and ensure boxers have the support they need to thrive both inside and outside the ring.

Unhappy birthday coming up for undefeated lightweight prospect Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz

WORCESTER, Μάζα. (Απρίλιος 15, 2020) – Even in his wildest dreams, undefeated World Boxing Council (WBC) Νέος πρωταθλητής ελαφρύς κόσμοςJamaine «Ο τεχνικός» Ortiz (13-0, 7 KOs) never could have ever imagined that his 24ου γενέθλια, later this month, would fall smack in the middle of a worldwide health pandemic

When he turns 24 τον Απρίλιο 28ου, Ortiz figured he’d be preparing for training camp with a spring fight date set, likely defending his WBC Youth World title of fighting for a regional belt of some sort.

He certainly didn’t think boxing would be banned around the world, gyms closed by a state mandate, and people wearing facemasks and plastic gloves like they’re in a Sci-Fi movie. Και, to boot, his job as a licensed carpenter ended closed shop last Friday. Like everybody else in the Bay State.

Ortiz is basically self-quarantined at home, although he’s still running, εκπαίδευση, eating well and doing everything else to maintain decent shape. Not elite boxing shape, αν και, which simply isn’t possible under these restrictive and trying times.

Instead of sparring, he’s shadow boxing, jumping rope has replaced pad-work with his trainersRocky Gonzalez καιCarlos Garcia, and now his living room serves as hisγυμναστήριο.

Times have been dramatically altered, πράγματι, even celebrating birthdays, which Jamaine fully understands and accepts.

“I don’t think my birthday will be any different,” Ortiz said. “I usually spend it alone with my mother and daughter (4-year-old Amira) and this year probably won’t be any different. I won’t be able to get in a whole bunch of sparring rounds that I usually ask for (γέλιο) as presents from some of my friends.“

Ευτυχώς, αν και, Ortiz was able to fight this past February 28 in his first action in six months, headlining a CES Boxing-promoted card at home in Worcester, Μασαχουσέτη, in which he registered an impressive second-round stoppage of Mexican knockout specialist"Τρελός" Λούις Ρονάλντο Καστίγιο (22-6, 17 KOs), πρώην πρωταθλητής ελαφρού βάρους WBC FECOMBOX.

Ortiz, presently rated No. 16 by the North American Boxing Federation (NABF), aspires to attend medical school after he hangs up his gloves for good, to become a doctor/researcher. He reads a lot about medicine, especially holistic treatments, and he believes that he may have already had the coronavirus.

“Five weeks before my last fight,” he explained, “I was in the hospital with a temperature of 104.5. Just about everybody I knew was sick, my grandmother had pneumonia. I never really get sick. I had a flu shot for seven years without an issue. I developed a cough, too. I felt like I was going to die. I can’t say with certainty I had coronavirus (there was no test available then), but I feel like I may have had it.”

Ortiz will be ready for the night the ring bell will finally sound again. “I hope to be fighting again in July or August, αλλά, no matter when boxing returns, I’ll be ready to go.

“This is a serious, contagious disease. People should use common sense: wash your hands, stay separated by six feet, and stay at home, especially the elderly and people with respiratory problems. Don’t take any unnecessary risks or panic, either. This isn’t the end of the world!"
