Jajaira Gonzalez was once the most promising amateur female boxer in the U.S. She narrowly missed out on a spot in Rio de Janeiro as a teenage prodigy.
Gonzalez left boxing after missing out on the Rio Olympics after she joined the Army .
She reconciled with most of her family and rededicated her life to boxing.
Gonzalez has transformed herself into a clear contender with strong medal chances despite being in a stacked weight class.
Gonzalez shed her extra weight to get down to 125 pounds ( 57 kilograms ) in an attempt to stay out of her original 60-kilo division.
But she had competition at 57 kilos in the promising Alyssa Mendoza , a precocious teenager from a Mexican -American family, just like Gonzalez eight years earlier .
Gonzalez shed the extra weight, but then USA Boxing asked her if she would be interested in moving back up in weight to be its No. 2 fighter.
