“Brazilian boxing has grown a lot,” she said. “I think that we are having a lot of opportunities, to be having a lot of incentive and inspiration. I think boxing athletes are always very humble, so we see an opportunity to change our lives. And having the support, having professionals who are seriously working there for this development, I think the Olympic team is doing an amazing job and this is helping a lot in the results. So there is Yuri Falcão, there is Rebecca Lima, there are several athletes who I believe will be very good, not only in the Olympics, but in the professional [ranks] too. They are taking a lot of experience, they are getting encouragement, and being prepared to be able to pursue a career in professional [boxing]. I believe that Brazil will have great boxers for a while, with more prominence.”
