Mauricio Sulaimán joins global icons for new book launch

Mauricio Sulaimán, the President of the World Boxing Council, has joined several global sports icons for the launch of a new book titled Behind The Brilliance. The publication features the personal accounts of 15 significant figures from the international sports industry.

British historian Paul Zanon authored the work, which was built upon an original concept developed by Connie Henry MBE, a former international athlete and social impact strategist. The book focuses on the personal struggles, turning points, and origins of these individuals to examine the human resilience required for high-performance sports.

In his contribution to the book, Sulaimán uses his experience leading the WBC to discuss how boxing discipline and sports values can drive social inclusion and transformation for young people globally. His involvement highlights the responsibility of sports institutions and leaders to protect and inspire athletes in various aspects of life.

The book is composed of 15 exclusive interviews that illustrate how the human spirit can prevail over difficult circumstances. It aims to provide a deeper understanding of success through these intimate personal narratives.

All profits from the international sale of Behind The Brilliance will be donated to the Behind The Brilliance Giving initiative. This fund is dedicated to supporting grassroots sports organizations, financing community projects, and empowering upcoming athletes and leaders.
