Mexico is known for producing great boxers as some of the top boxers in the world, like Canelo Alvarez, Andy Ruiz Jr., and Jaime Munguia all belong to the ‘Land of Enchantment’. So it came as no surprise when its capital was part of the largest boxing class ever.

A boxing class hosted by 15 Mexican boxers recently set the new Guinness World Record for the largest boxing class in history. The event was attended by over 14,000 people easily beating the previous record of 3000 which took place in Moscow in 2017.

Moreover, former WBC super featherweight champion Oscar Valdez was also part of the event and took to social media to promote it, but he did not get the reaction he was expecting as fans trolled the Mexican boxer despite him helping to set the record.

Fans React to Oscar Valdez’s video

Top Rank boxing posted a video of Valdez showing the crowd gathered for the event tagging the Mexican with the caption,”@OscarValdez56 helped break the Guinness World Record for the largest boxing class with 14,299 attendees over the weekend “

However, the fans were not kind to him as one fan replied by bringing up Valdez’s loss to WBO featherweight champion Shakur Stevenson tweeting, “I bet half of them want to know what he learned from Shakur lol”

Another fan also trolled the Mexican for losing to Stevenson as he tweeted, “Should have invited @ShakurStevenson
who gave him a personal boxing lesson.”

Moreover, even the crowd was not safe from the trolling as one fan-made fun of the crowd tweeting, “Dayum, they must all be learning how to fight at the same time? Lmao”

Valdez receives praise

However, it wasn’t too bad for Valdez as many fans also praised the boxer and appreciated the event. One fan showed her support for him and tweeted, “That’s crazy love and support congrats Mr. Valdez”

Furthermore, a fan also shows his support for the crowd as he tweeted,” What an amazing sight!!!!! “

It looks like the fans had mixed reactions to this event, but it was certainly a sight to behold for any boxing fan and it is something that the country should be proud of.
