Let's make this birthday one to remember.

44 years old (Born on October 28, 1980)

Happy Birthday, Alfonso Gomez! From stepping into the ring professionally in 2001 and swiftly winning 12 of your first 15 fights, to capturing our hearts (and third place!) on "The Contender" in 2004—you've always packed a punch both inside and outside the ring. Your determination and charisma have made you unforgettable.

Today we celebrate not just your impressive boxing career but also your lasting legacy as one of Mexico's most spirited fighters. May this birthday bring you more joy than landing a perfect knockout punch—and fewer bruises too! Keep bobbing, weaving, and smiling—you're still our favorite contender!
