Carlos Cruzat, Legendary Chilean Champion, in Talks to Host IBA Championship in Chile 🇨🇱!
Carlos Cruzat, former IBA World Cruiserweight Champion and a legendary figure in South American boxing, remains one of the most respected names in Chilean sports. Known for his powerful style and charisma, Cruzat made history by becoming one of the first Chilean boxers to win a world title on the international stage, elevating the profile of Chilean boxing in the 1990s.
Now retired from active competition, he has remained deeply involved in the sport as a mentor, promoter, and advocate for boxing development in Chile. He is currently in negotiations to organize an IBA championship event in Chile — a project aimed at highlighting the emerging generation of Chilean fighters and offering them a global platform.
The IBA global office has been in communication with Mr. Cruzat for several months and is optimistic about finalizing this historic agreement soon. His involvement brings significant credibility and attention to the initiative, as he continues to be a symbol of Chilean boxing pride.
