Five teens from Bell Gardens, three of them girls, won championship belts at the Ringside World Championship tournament in Kansas were 1,488 boxers fought within their designated weight categories early in August.

A total of 10 young people in Bell Gardens Police Department’s Youth Boxing Club went to the tournament that was held at the KCI Expo Center Aug. 5-9, and at the August 25 council meeting, the council members presented the club with a certificate of recognition for their success.

For 14-year-old Raymon Zertuche, student at Pace Intermediate, this was his second boxing championship win. Zertuche has only been training for three years and plans to stay in the sport for a long time.

“I’d like to stay [in the club] until I turn 18, then I want to go professional,” Zertuche told EGP.

The Zertuche family is very proud of Raymond and his success has inspired his seven-year-old sister to become a boxer as well.

The three young women who won their championship matches at the international tournament are Jackie Aviles and Joselyn Rosas, both 13-years-old and students at Bell Gardens High School, and

Jazmine Vazquez, also 13, and a student at Laguna Nueva Elementary.

Although there are few girls in the male dominated club, the girls say they feel comfortable and respected.

Josie Mejia, director of the boxing club and a Hall of Fame Boxer, says that every now and then boys complain about the girls hitting too hard and don’t want to be paired up to spar with them.

“There should be more girls in boxing so that we can fight them,” Aviles said.

Mejia says that a lot of contenders underestimate the Bell Gardens boxers by judging them by their looks.
