Despite only suffering a knockdown blow just 21 hours into a fight at Fantasy Springs Casino in Indio, California, transgender athlete Patricio Manuel is angry.
The boxer, who was born Patricia Manuel, won five straight sexual amateur titles and also competed in the 2012 U.S. Open. S. Olympic tests. Yet, she had to bow over due to an injury. But in 2013, Manuel began to “transition ” into a male and, by 2014, had undergone full transgender surgery.
Manuel has won three battles in a row as a female athlete, but Joshua Reyes ‘ run came to an end when he faced him in the ring on April 4.
Manuel is lying in a text on Instagram, telling Speak Sports that it’s no longer the right time to give up the ring. .
After their first lost next year via a KO by Joshua Reyes, Patrick Manuel, the first professional trans, is now 3-1.
Pat was upbeat and asserted that Pat’s disappointment would not cause him harm.

“I’m not one to hide my face no matter the outcome…. I lost last night, ” Manuel wrote.
“ I trained my a** off, had great fighting, cut no walls. But maybe s*** does n’t come your way.
It’s a threat that we all take when we enter the ring. It’s what is exciting about boxing – and also the most painful, ” Manuel continued.
“The most important part is I am good. I am greatly disappointed, and to be truthful, my self is bruised. ”
But I’m not going to bow my head in shame. Rarely have I played it safe, and occasionally that means failing. And failure does not tear me, the boxer reaffirmed.
Thank you to everyone who has been in my life and maybe will continue to be. ”
Manuel is the only female boxer who was born in the adult category to compete properly.
