A golpes, la medalla más esperada

El triste desempeño de la delegación mexicana en Río fue paliado por un boxeador del que no se esperaba nada. Misael Hernández logró un bronce, y con eso concluyó tanto la sequía en Brasil como la del box mexicano en los Olímpicos. Integrante de una federación sumamente criticada y casi sin apoyos federales, el atleta hizo lo suyo. Eso sí, en cuanto triunfó, todo mundo se subió a su medalla. Incluso Telmex, empresa donde trabaja su madre y que le ha negado una beca para pugilistas.

Osteopatía: Las Manos Que Oyen
