Saturday the 24th of October, twenty twenty-six, in the morning. Good morning, and welcome to ChatShow, where we explore a listener's question together. This show is about Mexico, for listeners there. Today's question: would Mexico City's boxing commissions be right to ban amateur bouts for under-18s in Guadalajara and Monterrey after the 2024 head-injury studies, or should youth boxing stay open with mandatory headgear and medical checks? I'm Denzai, moderating. We have fifteen minutes with Claudette, Milan and Gemmy. Claudette, we start with you. Before anyone debates a ban, who has authority over amateur bouts for minors in Guadalajara and Monterrey? Can a Mexico City commission reach other states, or does this sit with state bodies and the national amateur federation?

Start with authority. Mexico City's commission only governs Mexico City. Guadalajara and Monterrey answer to their own state and municipal bodies, and amateur bouts largely run through the Mexican Boxing Federation alongside CONADE. So …
