Juarez started boxing at the age of 8. She was the first female in the
history of the Fort Worth Golden Gloves to box and win. She is currently on
the USA Woman’s Elite Boxing Team at 119lbs representing the USA at all
international events. She has 67 wins and 6 losses.
In her ten years boxing she has managed to
win 5 Silver Gloves State Tournaments, 6 Regional Golden Gloves, 1 all
female show in San Antonio, 3 Female Golden Gloves Nationals, 2001- 2002
-2003 Ringside National Champion, 2004 Ringside World Tournament where she
beat the Canadian Champion, 2003-2004-2005 Texas Female Champion, 2003 &
2004 USA Junior Olympic Champion, and won the USA Woman’s National
Championships in 2005 at 16 yrs old .She went to Russia in October of 2005
representing the USA in the Woman’s Worlds. She has 7 belts and numerous
trophies, and many medals. Her dream was to be able to be one of the first
women to box in the Olympics however in October of 2005 the international
committee decided that the Olympics weren’t ready for Female Boxing. She
will be in Colorado Springs Co at the Olympic training Center March 4-12,
2006 to try and capture one last National title .She has accomplished all
she can in the Amateur program so this spring she will enter the exciting
world of Professional Fighting. And hopefully be the first Woman from
Ft.Worth to be a Professional World Champion. |
