Finish one of the most anticipated events on the asphalt Magic Box of Madrid. After a two-year wait due to the covid-19 pandemic, the iconic sports venue hosted on June 4 of Fitboxing World Games with a presence of nearly 1,500 people on the stand to shoulder the Oli & L@s Benjisits champion team V edition of the fitboxing world championships.
In the presence of parents, children, grandparents or friends who came to symbolize what turned out to be a fun, healthy and respectful party, the final match between the Madrid team and Majorcan Dimonis Punch, the other finalists, finished nearly 12 hours non-stop competition. From the time the first confrontations opened at 11 a.m. until after 8 p.m. the rhythm of the music had weakened to the last hits on the bag.
“We are shocked, we still need to assimilate it”, declared the champions, whose coach, andformer boxer Oliver Esteban, recognized “worked hard on microcycles, combining agility, power and endurance”. Esteban was the Spanish junior boxing champion at the age of 17.
So, with this new title for Oli & L@s Benjis, the world title once again remains in Spain due to the impossibility of teams coming fromand Portugal either Italy to conquer the Fitboxing World Games. A title that in five editions held always ends up on the Spanish side, but with the growing international presence it means the great growth that fitboxing continues to experience.
One of the most fashionable sports on the global scene celebrated without professional fitboxers and without age or gender range. That’s another one of the great attractions of this discipline, which until now was dominated by purely female teams but this time ended up in a mixed group (two men and two women).
Thus, the title recognized by the WBC and designated the best fitboxing team in the world travels to the Madrid neighborhood of Sanchinarro where it will remain, at least, throughout 2022 with the view that in the 2023 edition the public and participants will continue to develop their interest in this discipline without limiting its global growth.
