Dubbed ‘La Traviesa’ or ‘The Troublemaker’ in the world of USA boxing, this 21-year-old athlete embodies resilience as she prepares for Paris 2024. Her journey into the sport was born from a need to defend herself against relentless bullying during her formative years due to her being overweight. “I entered the boxing world when I was nine years old because I was being bullied a lot in school due to my weight as a kid,” she says.

Her breakthrough occurred when she clinched a silver medal at the 2023 Pan American Games in the Women’s 50 kg category. This remarkable achievement not only cemented her dominance in the ring but also secured her a coveted position in the Paris 2024 Olympics. Now, fueled by her passion and the support of her community, Jennifer Lozano tirelessly campaigns to raise funds, ensuring that nothing stands in the way of her pursuit of Olympic glory.

Championing support for Jennifer Lozano’s journey to Paris

Recently, KGNS News interviewed Jennifer, delving into her upcoming journey to Paris. During the interview, the host broached the topic of Jennifer’s impending trip to Paris, scheduled for July. Jennifer revealed her plans to depart in June to prepare for the competition and discussed her efforts to raise funds for her family to accompany her. When asked about the significance of her family witnessing her compete, Jennifer expressed heartfelt sentiments.

Recalling her mother’s unwavering support during her previous competitions in Santiago, Chile, she shared poignant reflections on the sacrifices made over the years, missing family milestones, and emergencies due to training and competitions. Recognizing the sacrifices made not only by Jennifer but also by her parents, the interview concluded with a call to support Jennifer’s fundraising efforts. The host encouraged viewers to contribute generously to ensure Jennifer’s family could accompany her to Paris. However, it’s worth noting Jennifer has faced adversity as a female boxer in a male-dominated sport as well.
