note
Érica was a futsal player in her
youth and started to take boxing
classes at the age of 22, without
the intention of competing. She
ended up loving the sport
modality and four months later
participated of her first Brazilian
Championship and won the title.
Holder of a collection of national
and international titles she
considers the triumph at the South
American championship of 2010 as
the most important moment of
her career because it happened
right after the loss of her mother.
