All on the Line for #RingTelmexTelcel Titans in Vegas 

One day before  the opening bell rings, signaling Saúl Álvarez and Jaime Munguía to box, RING TELMEX-TELCEL Director, Doctor Rogelio Herrera Echauri looks back in time and remembers the appealing and engaging arrival of “Canelo” and Munguia to the Foundation Program TELMEX-TELCEL.

“It is already 16 years into the life of the Program, and how can we not remember when “Canelo” came to this initiative, and was starting his professional career, becoming the greatest figure in the sport.

“At that time, no one could imagine just how far “Canelo” and Munguía would go with million-dollar salaries.  Now, both will collide head-on, thanks to their work, endeavor, performances and dedication.

“Great memories… I feel satisfied with the work done and being part of this extraordinary journey… Great results have been achieved throughout these almost 16 years and, now, seeing two successful former  Ring Telmex Telcel members facing each other on a great international card, I am full of pride,” Herrera Echauri enthused..

Herrera Echauri, a boxing fan, always discreet, but willing to serve others in an honorary way, cannot hide his satisfaction for the work of many years and seeing the growth plus development of so many Mexican fighters, both in the amateur and professional spheres.

Since July 22, 2008, when RING TELMEX-TELCEL was  created, as an initiative of Mr. Carlos Slim, and World Boxing Council President José Sulaimán, the numbers of this program, has generated throughout the world and the experience has been fabulous.

“A very strong bond is created with the team and over time they become family… The best dividend for RING TELMEX-TELCEL is to see them succeed, like ‘Canelo’ and Munguía… This makes me think that it has been worth the effort,” pointed out Herrera.

Regarding his prognosis for this match that has caused a sensation, he was cautious, “I don’t have a favorite… that the best one wins and, as always, that they come out of this battle well, that is the most important thing.”
