Lorena Medina by © Ricky Alvarez

[barcalover86]

wait was she saying like bad stuff about pedri or just talking ab the “situation” for attention

My Spanish isn't that good, but she didn't say bad things about him.

Her cousin was reading all the messages, even the ones that were judging Lorena, but she remained silent for a while just listening to what people were saying.

After I think 1h they started to talk about the hate that she gets and that people don't know her at all, but that didn't stop them to continue their talk about Pedri.

Mostly, her cousin Alvarez (who blocked me on insta without even looking at her account hahahaha) , was talking about Lorena and Pedri.

She was saying stuff like now Lorena is single, but she was with a Barcelona football player. People were getting mad in the comments.

In the beginning, Lorena asked her cousins what bikini to wear, and they chose the orange one because "it was Pedri's favourite."

They talked about their situation at the hotel and how Pedri doesn't deserve Lorena (she said she wanted something serious, but doesn't look like it), but my Spanish is bad and don't know exactly what they said. Especially that they were talking fast and couldn't even understand the words they were saying.

After a while, people started to comment that Lorena would look good with Gavi and she just smiled at them (Alvarez was reading everything).

People were also saying to search on Google the rumour girlfriend of Pablo to see if Lorena knows her and she just said that she doesn't care about Pedri's friends or family, especially his friends' girlfriends.

The whole live was chaotic with a lot of hate and angry comments.

They even asked her about the conversation with her and Pedri and she just replied with "none of your business".

It's clearly that she does it for fame and she was never with Pedri. I feel sorry for her, being in the need to talk about Pedri to be "appreciated". I hope that one day she'll get over it.

Also the fact that her cousin was reading BAD comments about Lorena seemed weird to me. She could just ignore them but decided to read EVERYTHING.

She even posted a tik tok with them 3 where they were showing Lorena saying that "If she can, can" (they were talking about if Lorena managed to get Pedri's attention, let her alone. It means she is capable)

Look at her tt account if you want to see it or just search Lorena Ramiro.

Also, for people that are posting the live on tik tok, PLEASE GIVE CREDITS!!

I saw a lot of people with my live video.

Thank you!

Slow and Steady

Just like the quiet, continuous backing of friends and family is the most empowering form of support, sometimes steady treatment is more effective than large single bursts of medicine. Colorectal cancers are particularly deadly when they spread to other parts of the body, which can happen even in patients who have the initial tumour surgically removed. Experiments have tried to reduce this spread by boosting the immune system with interferon alpha – a small protein that helps coordinate the immune system – but found limited success because of the side-effects of a heavy dose. A new study instead supplied a small steady stream of interferon alpha to mice with implanted tumours. Spread to the liver (pictured, cancer cells in green) was reduced as the immune system was better equipped to fend off intruders, and there were minimal side-effects. This approach might ultimately increase the efficacy of tumour removal surgery, keeping cancer away.

to be quite honest she looks very uncomfortable and insecure in the videos you shared. not sure she would’ve said much at all if it wasn’t for her cousin/ friend. but yeah people should just stop giving her attention (and also hate because that’s not alright either). it’s very clear that whatever there was is over and didn’t matter much in the first place.

In my opinion, she wasn't insecure at all. Maybe the part where they were talking about Gavi.

We didn't see her a lot because some minutes the camera was just on Alvarez, Lorena eventually came and put the camera on her as well.

When she went to the kitchen to have a drink, she definitely wasn't insecure. She was showing her muscles and was talking and joking with her cousins like nothing was wrong.

I agree with you about not spreading hate towards her, cuz it's not alright.

Yes, we might not like her, but giving hate and saying bad words to her is not alright either!

Thank you for your comment!

La Infancia de Mike Tyson: Sus Primeros Años El Nacimiento de una Leyenda Mike Tyson nació el 30 de junio de 1966, en Brownsville, Brooklyn, un vecindario conocido por su alta tasa de criminalidad y pobreza. Criado en un entorno de adversidad, la infancia de Tyson estuvo marcada por la **ausencia de su padre** y las **dificultades económicas**. Su madre, Lorna Mae, hizo todo lo posible por cuidar a Mike y a sus dos hermanos, sin embargo, la familia a menudo se enfrentó a la realidad de vivir en condiciones precarias. Encuentros con la Ley A una edad temprana, Tyson comenzó a mostrar un comportamiento problemático. A los 13 años, ya había sido arrestado múltiples veces por diversos delitos menores. La agresividad que manifestaba en las calles de Brooklyn fue en buena parte alimentada por la necesidad de **defenderse en un entorno hostil**. Fue durante uno de estos episodios que Tyson conoció a Bobby Stewart, un consejero juvenil que lo introdujo al mundo del boxeo. Descubriendo el Boxeo La vida de Mike Tyson cambió drásticamente cuando **entró al reformatorio Tryon School for Boys** en Johnstown, Nueva York. Allí, Bobby Stewart, un ex boxeador convertido en consejero, reconoció el potencial de Tyson y lo instruyó en los fundamentos del boxeo. El talento innato de Mike para el deporte no pasó desapercibido, y pronto comenzó a entrenar con el legendario **mentor Cus D'Amato**, quien vio en él una futura estrella. Esta relación fue crucial, pues bajo la tutela de D'Amato, Tyson encontró disciplina y un camino hacia la grandeza deportiva.

Su ascenso al estrellato comenzó con una serie de combates impresionantes que demostraron su talento excepcional y su increíble poder de golpeo. Desde su debut profesional en marzo de 1985, Tyson no perdió tiempo en mostrar al mundo de lo que era capaz. Uno de los momentos más destacados de sus primeros combates fue su pelea contra Hector Mercedes. El 6 de marzo de 1985, Tyson demostró su dominio al vencer a Mercedes por nocaut técnico en el primer asalto, marcando el inicio de una carrera inigualable. Este combate estableció el tono para lo que vendría: una serie de victorias por nocaut que dejó una marca indeleble en el boxeo. Victorias Consecutivas En los primeros 18 meses de su carrera, Tyson compitió en 27 peleas, ganando todas y 25 de ellas por nocaut. Estos impresionantes logros lo catapultaron rápidamente a la fama, destacándose no solo por la cantidad de victorias, sino también por la calidad de sus actuaciones dentro del ring.

Cada combate era una muestra más de su feroz técnica y estrategia, consolidando su reputación como uno de los púgiles más temidos de su generación.

Su victoria sobre Trevor Berbick fue un momento histórico en el boxeo, consolidándolo rápidamente como una fuerza imparable en el deporte. Unificación de Títulos Durante su carrera, Tyson no solo ganó, sino que también unificó los títulos de las tres organizaciones principales de boxeo: el Consejo Mundial de Boxeo (WBC), la Asociación Mundial de Boxeo (WBA) y la Federación Internacional de Boxeo (IBF). Esto lo convirtió en el campeón indiscutido de peso pesado, una hazaña impresionante que pocos han logrado. Logros Notables

Uno de los episodios más notorios ocurrió en 1992, cuando Tyson fue condenado por la violación de Desiree Washington, una participante del concurso de Miss Black America. Este incidente llevó a Tyson a cumplir una sentencia de tres años en prisión, una experiencia que cambió significativamente el curso de su vida y carrera. Incidentes de Violencia A lo largo de los años Tyson también ha sido conocido por sus numerosos incidentes de violencia tanto dentro como fuera del ring. En 1997, protagonizó uno de los momentos más infames de la historia del boxeo al morder una oreja de Evander Holyfield durante una pelea. Este acto resultó en su descalificación y suspensión del boxeo. Además, Tyson ha tenido enfrentamientos físicos públicos y numerosas acusaciones de agresión, lo que ha añadido más complejidad a su ya turbulenta vida personal. Problemas Financieros Además de sus problemas legales y de comportamiento, Tyson ha enfrentado serios problemas financieros. A pesar de haber ganado cientos de millones de dólares a lo largo de su carrera, Tyson se declaró en bancarrota en 2003, citando una deuda de aproximadamente 23 millones de dólares. Sus extravagantes gastos, incluyendo mansiones, autos lujosos y mascotas exóticas, junto con costosos litigios y malas inversiones, contribuyeron significativamente a su ruina financiera.
