Originally from R\u00edo Abajo, but currently a resident of La Chorrera, this Panamanian boxer has shown that with focus and determination it is possible to overcome any challenge. Although his passion for the sport was born in childhood, his path to boxing began unexpectedly in the National Police, where he discovered his true talent.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI was always a fighter since I was little, but not because I wanted trouble, but because I come from a neighbourhood where they taught you not to let anyone take you,\u201d Eduardo says with a smile. Initially, football was his favourite sport and he even played for promotion teams. However, everything changed when, after joining the police at the age of 24, he took part in internal tournaments and quickly stood out. In his first five fights, he won three by knockout and two by unanimous decision, a result that marked the beginning of his career in technical boxing.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>A day in the life of a champion<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eduardo\u2019s routine is a testament to discipline. In preparation for competitions, he starts his day at 5 a.m. with a 45-minute run, followed by strength exercises. He then trains at the National Police gym from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., and in the afternoon he dedicates himself to improving his technique and tactics at a private gym. \u201cWhen I\u2019m not in preparation, I do my shifts at the police, but I always find time to train,\u201d he explains.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eduardo is also studying Physical Education and Personal Training at UMECIT, with the aim of becoming a coach and teacher. \u201cMy dream is to pass on my knowledge to the next generation. Sport has transformed my life and I want to give back by teaching,\u201d he explains.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Dreams and goals<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the world rankings, Eduardo has climbed impressive positions, going from #8 to #3 in just one year. His short-term goal is to represent Panama at the Olympics, a dream that he has nurtured with points obtained in international tournaments. \u201cMy focus is on the next four years, where each tournament counts to get closer to first place in the world in my category, now at 70 kg,\u201d he emphasizes.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eduardo also has a message for young people: \u201cSport is important, but studying is the key. We are at a stage in our lives where we must think about the future, because later we will have to teach those who come after us.\u201d<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Towards the Olympics and beyond<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With his heart set on the Olympic Games and the goal of being the #1 in the world, Eduardo Belfort is not only fighting for medals, but also for inspiring a generation of Panamanians to dream big. His story shows that success is built with effort, discipline and a clear vision of the future.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without a doubt, Eduardo is a source of pride, not only for UMECIT, but also for Panama, and his journey has just begun.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-aab4037 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default row-top\" data-id=\"aab4037\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3817249 column-style-top\" data-id=\"3817249\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c8a4dbb elementor-arrows-position-inside elementor-pagination-position-outside elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-carousel\" data-id=\"c8a4dbb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;slides_to_show&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;navigation&quot;:&quot;both&quot;,&quot;autoplay&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;pause_on_hover&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;pause_on_interaction&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;autoplay_speed&quot;:5000,&quot;infinite&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;effect&quot;:&quot;slide&quot;,&quot;speed&quot;:500}\" data-widget_type=\"image-carousel.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-carousel-wrapper swiper\" role=\"region\" aria-roledescription=\"carousel\" aria-label=\"Carousel of images\" dir=\"ltr\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-carousel swiper-wrapper\" aria-live=\"off\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"1 of 3\" data-no-translation-aria-label=\"\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image\" src=\"https:\/\/ec2-44-206-156-148.compute-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/070A4833-768x512.jpg\" alt=\"070A4833\" \/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"2 of 3\" data-no-translation-aria-label=\"\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image\" src=\"https:\/\/ec2-44-206-156-148.compute-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/070A4837-768x512.jpg\" alt=\"070A4837\" \/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"3 of 3\" data-no-translation-aria-label=\"\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image\" src=\"https:\/\/ec2-44-206-156-148.compute-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/070A4853-768x512.jpg\" alt=\"070A4853\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-swiper-button elementor-swiper-button-prev\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"eicon-chevron-left\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-swiper-button elementor-swiper-button-next\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"eicon-chevron-right\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-pagination\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A sus 33 a\u00f1os, Eduardo Beckford se ha convertido en un ejemplo de perseverancia y dedicaci\u00f3n.
