“Any time you can have a world champion come speak to your school it’s a huge deal. Our students can relate to the boxers because they come from similar backgrounds.
“Their stories of putting in the hard work to succeed in their fields, despite their odds are very inspiration to all.
“We would like to thank WBC and especially Mo Noor, WBC World Boxing Cares Board Secretary for making this event possible,” said Val Verde High School Counselor James Macaraeg.
