(NOV 1) SAN ANTONIO, TX - After
two pro fights, super-lightweight female sensation, Selina
"Aztec Queen" Barrios (2-0, 1 KO), who hails from San Antonio,
TX, has assembled a dynamic team to help guide her the pinnacle
of women's boxing.
Dr. Charles Campbell and his son Colin Campbell from Corpus
Christi, TX, will co-manage Selina Barrios. Colin will handle
the day to day operations, while Dr. Charles will help guide her
career as a boxer, and personal pursuits in her professional
life.
"My son Colin and I are very excited to be working with such a
talented fighter like Selina Barrios." said Dr. Charles
Campbell. "Selina has the one element in boxing that all fans
want to see, and that's punching power. In addition, Selina has
the mindset you look for in a fighter. The fact that she's
willing to fight a standout amateur like Zarina Tsoloyeva, in
only her third pro fight, says it all."
"Selina is the type of fighter that everyone in boxing should
rally behind," Colin Campbell stated. "She's overcome a lot of
adversity to get where she's at today, and the girl can fight.
She's certainly more exciting then most of the male boxers we
see on TV today. Selina was born to be on the big stage, and
with her fighting style, she will become a fan favorite as soon
as they see her fight."
Kerry Daigle, from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, who runs Keeppunching
Entertainment, will stay on has Barrios' advisor / consultant,
and aid in getting Selina in the biggest fights that women's
boxing can provide.
"Several promoters are seeking to work with Keeppunching
Entertainment and Selina Barrios because she might be the most
TV friendly female fighter in 20 years, with the opportunity to
sell out venues, even better then male counterparts." said Kerry
Daigle.
Selina's step dad Martin Barrios, who has been in her corner
since she was a top amateur, will serve as the chief trainer. He
played a significant role in helping Selina acquire an
astonishing amateur record of (80-3), in addition to her
sustaining an undefeated record as a pro.
"Selina is a tremendous fighter with the punching power to
change a fight with one shot." Martin Barrios stated. "I'm not
just saying that because she's my daughter, I've seen her
destroy folks in the gym. I'm super happy that I was able to get
Mr. Dailge to believe in Selina. I know with his connections and
Selina's talent, we as a team, can do something special in
women's boxing.
Rick Nunez, will oblige as the assistant trainer. Nunez, from
San Antonio, TX, has worked side by side with Martin, helping
Selina become one of the most dangerous fighters in women's
boxing.
"With women's boxing on the rise, Selina now has everything set
in place to become a big star in the sport," Rick Nunez stated.
"You need a solid team behind you to make it in boxing, and
that's exactly what we have now moving forward."
Maurice "Termite" Watkins from Houston, TX, and Ben Flores, of
Corpus Christi, TX, will share duties as camp coordinators to
the trainers. Watkins, who fought in the lightweight division as
a professional in the 70's, 80's and 90's, had a spectacular
record of (61-5-1, 42 KOs).
Selina's younger brother, undefeated super-lightweight
contender, Mario Barrios (20-0, 12 KOs), has been in awe of his
sister since she was as dominate amateur.
"Growing up, my sister was the best fighter in every tournament
we entered." said Mario Barrios. "She literally wrecked everyone
in her weight class. It wasn't until I was a late teen that I
was able to hang with her. I love my sister and I know with the
powerful team that she has behind her now, she can become a
world champion."
Ann Wolfe, who was one of the most devastating punchers in
women's boxing history, has been a big fan of Selina since her
days as a dominate amateur. Wolf has seen Selina destroy her
competition while fighting in the amateurs.
"Selina Barrios is a beast," said former world champion Ann
Wolf. "I haven't seen anything like her since my days as a
professional boxer. She definitely has the talent to become a
multiple world champion."
"I'm looking forward toward a great career, that I hope will
last many years," said Selina Barrios. "I have a great team
behind me now, I know if I put in the hard work, everything will
work out, and my dreams will come true."
