Former Champ Rosendo Alvarez Receives WBC Humanitarian of the Year Award

The World Boxing Council (WBC) today decided to award their “WBC Humanitarian of the Year Award” to two-time world champion Rosendo Álvarez, for his determined support to the community and for extending his helping hand to former champion Ricardo Mayorga.

Rosendo “El Búfalo” Alvarez has dedicated years of his life in promoting boxing, creating opportunities for young boxers of low income.

In addition, Alvarez delivers inspirational talks in rehabilitation centers around his beloved country, Nicaragua.

The former champion has taken the example of his own struggles in life to the young in remote communities, and he has shared his hard-earned profits with the needed and the poor.

God bless. Good initiative by the WBC.
