Havana, September 8 (JIT)-- Lázaro Álvarez achieved the quota also desired by Erislandy Álvarez and is among the top fighters announced by the Cuban Boxing Federation to travel on Saturday to Paris, the next stop in the preparation for the 2023 Pan American Games in Santiago.

The three-time world champion twice defeated the runner-up at that level in duels that enhanced the tops carefully evaluated by the strategists of the national concentrate, who ended up assigning him the place in the 63.5 kilos division.

"I feel in very good shape, I have increased my training, both inside and outside the country, and the result is coming out," said the star shortly after winning a 3-0 decision in a match held at the emblematic Rafael Trejo Hall, in the capital of the island.

"I have assimilated well the changes that training for professional fights and other five-round fights, such as the IBA champions' nights, and the work has been achieved," added Lazaro, who celebrated solid victories in two recent international forays.

Aware that there are still no sure spots for the continental event that starts on October 20, the left-handed laureate said he was determined to make the most of the stay in the main French city, which will have a competitive segment in a gala convened for the 16th.

"I want to become one of the few holders of four Pan American titles in my sport, and that's why I look with great enthusiasm towards that commitment," sentenced the king of the Guadalajara 2011, Toronto 2015 and Lima 2019 editions.

Cuba will take to France seven men and three women distributed in the same weight categories in which it will be present in the competition in the Chilean capital, where Julio Cesar La Cruz could also lift a fourth such scepter.
