The phenomenon of "Párense de Manos," the boxing event created by Luquita Rodríguez and the Paren la Mano de Vorterix team, continues to add the most striking stories. Since its first edition, media personalities and athletes have dared to step into the ring. Among the most prominent names who have participated in the event, which is a success in terms of audience, are Pablo Migliore, Turco García, Piti Fernández, and even Sergio "Maravilla" Martínez.
Among all the proposals that circulated to grow the show, there was one that could have been explosive: Marcos Rojo. Yes, when the current Racing player was still wearing Boca's jersey, there was a real possibility that he would star in a bout.
"There was one night when he was ready to fight. If it had been that night, he would've fought," said Luquita Rodríguez himself during his visit to CEF, where he was interviewed by the panel. The streamer even revealed that the opponent was confirmed and that the defender was approaching it with complete confidence: "In fact, the opponent was there. He said 'I'll tear his head off'."
The one who would've faced Rojo was the Spaniard Víctor Mélida, better known as ViruZz, 33 years old, with experience in similar events, since he had participated in an edition of La Velada del Año by Ibai Llanos.
The fight, ultimately, never happened. The professional soccer calendar got in the way and cut off the defender's path, leaving him wanting to star in a clash that would've caused enormous anticipation in the streaming world as well as in soccer.
