"Florentino Dodge Falcon is a medium weight (75kg) left-handed. It has the speed as the main weapon, but makes up for in technique. Bet on the counterattack and the variation of blows. Young, still has much to learn. Nothing that time can not solve. " No one better than the coach of the Brazilian boxing, John Soares, to present the bronze medalist at the World Cup in Baku, Azerbaijan, and more new promise of the sport.
Overshadowed by the title of Everton Lopes in the same tournament, the 21 years of Espirito Santo was born boxer. The relationship with the sport comes from the 2nd of December 1989, when his father, the bull fighter Moreno decided to register it with the name of Dodge. The boxing gloves were already present in his crib. In him and in the beds of eight brothers, who were crowded into a house on the outskirts of Sierra, the metropolitan region of Victoria.
At six he began learning the strokes and footwork with the father, the taste was immediate. For nearly a decade, constantly trained in the Holy Spirit.
The first round of the Dodge's career began at 15 after an invitation from the boxing team of Sao Caetano. Without hesitation, accepted the challenge of living alone on ABC and going into battle. The change, however, proved more difficult than expected. In addition to adapting to a new lifestyle, without family, suffered from the lack of fighting. The age was an obstacle, then, Brazil had no tournaments in the cadet category and the confederation prevented the boys to enroll in adult competitions.
The disappointment was so great that, after one season, Dodge threw in the towel and decided to return home. It took seven months of a completely different life.
- I started getting involved with drugs. Was not earning any more money and selling drugs was the easiest way to get some change. Luckily, my father found out and took me out of this world - proves elusive.

It was only the first drop in its history. In difficult moments, but he always had the help of friends. One of them, Rio Raff Giglio, a gym coach who has the hill Vidigal in Rio de Janeiro. Upon discovering that Dodge was standing in the Holy Spirit, soon invited to train, "Would you come here?"
HAWK ESQUIVAR FLORENTINO

Hometown: Sierra (Holy Spirit)
Height and weight: 75 kg and 1.80 m
Category: Middleweight (75 kg)
Feature: southpaw
Titles: World bronze in Baku
Coach: John Soares
- Accepted the invitation on time, but I confess that at first was not so much for boxing. I was looking forward to the Rio and funk carioca. The Raff bought me a ticket the next day and began to live in his academy. He slept on a mattress in the room and had a televisãozinha and a refrigerator.
The care offered by the coach to the boy, then about to turn 17, was more than enough to make Dodge returned to battle.
- I met the whole family and I consider him a father to me. I have maintained contact. Always go to the gym, training there and help the boys him. It is a way to give back all he did for me.
The nearly three years in the Marvelous City made as a boxer. The success was great, and Dodge was eventually asked to join the Brazilian team in Sao Paulo. It was the fourth change of town in five years. At least this time he had the company of one of his brothers, Yamaguchi Florentino, who was already training with the selection. He, incidentally, was the World Baku in early October, but was eliminated in the round of light heavyweight (up to 81kg).

The adaptation was easier and the results nationwide began to appear, but not everything went as planned. In 2010, the leading boxers of the country were invited to participate in an international amateur league, the WSB (World Series Boxing). They represent challenges teams from abroad, with a grant in dollar reward for fighting, and even hosting a Spanish course. Dodge was one of those selected and ended up staying six months in Mexico.
Now I will not let more chances to pass. I dream of the Olympics, but do not want to be imagining things that do not give anything wrong when I'm there. "

On the one hand the financial proposal was advantageous, on the other they would train with a new methodology. And according to coach John Charles Smith, was precisely what drew the Pan-American Dodge, in Guadalajara.
- There was a selective first in Venezuela. He came back a week and had just lost the first fight. It was the worst fight of his life. After that, we decided to take the David Lawrence, who is world champion and Olympic Youth (Youth Games), and he won the job.
The blow was hard. Until now, Dodge is not satisfied with the chance wasted. After all, he is the only athlete who was in the World and Pan was not only that, unlike the time when trained in Sao Caetano, he did not give up. Same shot, followed training hard. In the end, because of acts of indiscipline fellow David Lawrence, ended up getting a second chance of the technical commission and resumed the post of chief of the average athlete. Reward and learning came last week, with the bronze medal and place for the London Olympics in 2012.
- Now I will not let more chances to pass. I dream of the Olympics, but do not want to be imagining things that do not give anything wrong when I'm there. And as people dream of having a home. Building a home where I can live with my son Eric Henry, my father and mother. For now, it's just the tile, but I can.
And the boxing that took seven medals - two silvers and five bronzes - comes out as winner.

Boxing
Boxing is one of the oldest forms of struggle in human history. The sport was popular seven centuries before Christ, and in the seventeenth century in England fought for money. However, the Olympic and Pan American, the sport is amateur, and is divided into 12 categories, according to the weight of the athletes.
The fights last three rounds of three minutes each and the athletes must wear special gloves and shoes, and mouth guards, head and genitals - to preserve their physical integrity. There are two ways to define who the winner is: one is the number of strokes counted by the judges and one by KO (knock out), that is, when one of the combatants falls and is unable to continue lutando.veja further information; õesVer more information on the wikipedia site esporteSite official entity of the entity's official sport
