Jennifer Lozano’s Targets Run at 2025 World Boxing Championships PhilBoxing.com Thu, 04 Sep 2025 Lozano set to compete in women’s 51-kilogram weight class at inaugural World Championships COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (September 3, 2025) – La Traviesa: The Troublemaker. Jennifer Lozano has never been one to shy away from a confrontation. In fact, confrontation is a key element in her story as a boxer, one that has propelled her to the upper echelon of the sport’s international stage for the United States. In a sport that encourages its athletes to confront their problems head-on, she has repeatedly done just that. As a young female in Laredo, Texas, Lozano credits her boxing career to being bullied as a youth. Rather than shying away from her antagonizers, she took matters into her own hands, literally, and decided to learn how to defend herself. That’s the mentality that she maintains as a member of Team USA’s Elite High Performance team. She handles conflict herself and meets it head-on. While her boxing journey began as a means to an end, Lozano now utilizes the sport as a means to a beginning. After years of tireless work, she is now able to hone her craft and compete for the United States, chasing gold medals instead of simply making it home at the end of each day. However, one thing has been a constant for Jennifer: you don’t dodge the work, and you don’t dodge the lessons learned along the way. In 2025, Jennifer has experienced a spectrum of emotions while competing on the global boxing scene for the United States. She has achieved highs throughout the year, including two podium placements among her three international tournaments, as well as setbacks, all of which have her hungry for excellence while looking ahead. Now, her focus is set on the upcoming inaugural World Boxing Championships. “Heading to the World Championships in Liverpool, I feel great,” Lozano stated when asked about her sentiments entering the competition. “I feel ready. I feel like, despite all the setbacks I’ve faced this year, I feel great. I’ve been training hard, and I’ve been sacrificing. I’ve never been this focused since the Olympics. I’m just ready to go out there and show out and perform.” Throughout her boxing career, Jennifer has learned that the lessons taken from wins and losses are not so different. With the success, she has learned to press forward with what led her there. With the setbacks, she has learned to grow to be the best in the world and to use her experience to consistently progress. “The biggest lesson that I’ve learned so far is not to give up and just trust the process with everything that comes with it. Also, trusting these setbacks are going to be worth it when it matters most, which is the World Championships.” As a proud Mexican American and product of Laredo, Texas, Lozano is comfortable assimilating to situations, regardless of the stakes. While others may be able to focus on achieving goals for themselves, she is chasing greatness within the sport for more than just herself. She’s doing it for her family, her coaches and her community back home who are all cheering her on. With so much support, Jennifer Lozano is not the boxer she is for everybody in her corner. Rather, she is this boxer because of everybody in her corner. She embodies the spirit of fighting back through her culture and the setbacks she has experienced along the way. “This time, I’m a different person, mentally, emotionally and physically. I’ve matured from the Olympics, and I’ve grown. I’m ready to showcase what I’ve been working on ever since then [in Paris]. I’m just ready. I’ve been working really hard, and I’ve sacrificed a lot. It’s all going to be worth it once it comes to those rounds.” While Lozano has already accomplished so much in her young boxing career, she realizes the opportunities that she still has in front of her. She has a silver medal from the 2023 Pan American Games, which qualified her for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. She is forever an Olympian. She has yet another national title, which helped retain her spot on the 2025 USA Boxing High Performance Team. She has added medals from international tournaments throughout the year. Now, Lozano is hungry to show the world that she is the best in her weight class, and she has the perfect opportunity to take another step on that journey in Liverpool. “I’m looking forward to showcasing my skills, my hard work, and representing not just my country but my city as well. Everybody back at home is supporting me. I’m just ready to get in there, show out, and show the people who I am.” Lozano’s journey in the 51-kilogram weight class at the 2025 World Boxing Championships begins at the tournament’s official bracket draw on September 3. There, she will learn her path to gold and who she will need to defeat to claim a spot atop the podium. Team USA will be represented by 14 boxers at the 2025 World Boxing Championships, which will take place inside M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool, England, from September 4 to 14. Each day of the competition will be broadcast live on the World Boxing YouTube channel.
