MARIO “HEMI” HERRERA
Mario “HEMI” Herrera is an undefeated professional super middleweight boxer from Chicago with a record of 9-0-1, including seven knockouts. A former Chicago Golden Gloves Champion, Herrera built his reputation around an aggressive, pressure driven style, physical strength, and punching power.
Outside of the ring, Herrera serves as a Chicago Police Officer, giving him a story that extends well beyond boxing. His commitment to a career in law enforcement, along with injuries that interrupted his momentum, resulted in an extended absence from professional competition. Rather than walking away from the sport, Herrera continued training with the goal of returning when the time was right.
Now back and fully committed to his professional boxing career, Herrera is entering the next chapter with a renewed focus on competing consistently, developing at the highest level, and establishing himself as a legitimate contender in the super middleweight division.
Herrera is trained by Fernando Perez and managed by Alexsis Pappas. Together, his team is focused on building a career that combines high level performance in the ring with the unique story, personality, and presence Herrera brings outside of it.
For Herrera, the comeback is about more than returning to competition—it is about finishing what he started.
