The Mayan Belt was revealed today, as the title was presented by the World Boxing Council to honor and celebrate the WBC, IBF, WBA middleweight championship fight between champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and challenger Daniel “Miracle Man” Jacobs on May 4th in Las Vegas.
Fittingly, as part of the Cinco de Mayo Celebrations reserved for clashes involving elite superstar Mexican champions, the creation of a Mexican artisan masterpiece symbolically depicting eighteen centuries of the Mayan Culture in Year of the Maya, has been brilliantly devised by master craftsman Cesar Menchaca and his team of eight, involving thirty days of round the clock non stop work.
He and WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman presented it against the backdrop of Mexico City`s Food Market.
