GUILLERMO GUTIERREZ Working Out

New Faces: Guillermo Gutierrez
Berks Boxing Corner
Dean Berks – 26th Feb 2024 

The state of Texas has produced an exceptional line of fighters over the years: Donald Curry, Orlando and Gaby Canizales, Terry Norris, Jesse James Leija, and Juan Diaz is an impressive list. Add more recent champions like twins Jermall and Jermell Charlo, Errol Spence Jr, Jesse Rodriguez, and top 154 lb contender Vergil Ortiz Jr, and you can see just how special the “Lone Star State” is.  Hoping to add his name to that illustrious list is San Antonio’s super flyweight prospect, Guillermo Gutierrez. Unbeaten at 10-0, with 1 KO, the smooth stylist has just signed a contract with Eruption Boxing Management and will be guided by the companies Manager/President Gwen Legge. Both are hoping that the partnership will reap the rewards.  Gutierrez was introduced to boxing when he was just 8 years old by his father.  Speaking to the San Antonio Express, he recalled his beginnings in the sport. “I think he always wanted to be a fighter,” his father said, “So he signed me up. At first, I hated it. I would cry. I didn’t want to go.“ But he soon caught the bug, first training under the late Lorenzo Trujillo, before training under former WBA bantamweight champion John Michael Johnson.  Because of his diminutive size, fights were difficult to make in the early going. However, Gutierrez went on to have a very good amateur career with over 120 fights overall. Then the professional ranks came calling.
His journey started in June 2021 with a points win over Frank Boston, and in his next fight, he stopped Gabriel Guerrero, his only inside the distance win so far. But he is hoping to make improvements in that department, starting with a trip to spend some time with the esteemed Robert Garcia at his gym in California.  Gutierrez next fight is scheduled for 16 March and will see him compete for his first regional title, the NABF Jr., the first in what he intends to be many.  The next twelve months could shape up to being an exciting time for him, and hopefully, he will then be ready to make his move into the top ten in his division.
