Three-time Golden Gloves champion Jorge Pacheco became dedicated to boxing as a teenager. He now applies lessons learned in the ring to his business. LatinoVoicesWTTW

recalls the exact moment he became dedicated to boxing as a teenager in a bout with an older opponent.

“It was part of our culture, boxing,” Pacheco said. “The Oscar De La Hoyas, the Fernando Vargas, all the great Mexican fighters, we watched every fight. When I first started boxing, I’d lost a friend and I started eating a lot, so I wanted to lose weight. I asked my father if I could join him to the gym and he said, ‘Sure, come in.’ He wasn’t really expecting me to stick with it.

Though he ultimately opted out of going pro, Pacheco credits lessons learned from his days in the ring throwing punches — and taking them — for his business success.
