A 12-Year-Old Boxing Champion and Her Road to Olympic Gold | The New Yorker Documentary 

As a Mexican, I'm proud of this young lady! Greetings!

What an amazing story about an amazing little girl and her family! I literally shed ounces of tears watching this Documentary. It is my hope that everyone will join me and pray for Meryland, to keep her safe, healthy and always have faith in God as she pursues her dream.

Beautiful story about an amazing girl and her family; very well done The New Yorker!!

Top class cinematography and editing! A fine story of the power of family life to create greatness in everyone involved, including a young girl. And I don't mean boxing.

I hope this amazing girl makes it to Paris - I know I'll be watching when she wins the gold !

Keep training because you can be the best. Champion

This documentary is a true gift, inspirational and with a powerful message

The production, editing, writing, directing, etc., that went into making this superb video is every bit as worthy of award-winning as Meryland Gonzales herself, and I can imagine that similar stories of persistent struggle and overcoming adversity must exist in each and every one of those who worked so hard to tell this story. It makes me both proud and hopeful to be part of a nation where this could not only happen to first-generation immigrants, but also be so well told by others who no doubt share similar stories of courage and determination. - j q t -

OmG I'm in her Wight class I'ma get beat

What 6 year old girl picks up boxiing gloves and cries to her parents to take her to a boxing gym? Shame on her father. Shame on the USA for allowing children to take on such injury. What an embarrassment.

And if you lose a boxing match, you'll go to the hospital.

She's otherworldly 😉

TOO young to have her pretty head absorb hits. Too young.

je te mets au sol !

Kids shouldn’t be taking blows to the head. I get it’s a sport but she will be paying the price when she’s older. 😞

Who's here after the new Yorker supported a global warming terrorist?
