It felt like a dream because I was playing this in my head before the event. It was like the best moment of my life to date."Victor Montalvo"It wasn't a dream of mine at first, but when I found out in 2020 that breaking was going to be in the Olympics, I'm like, "All right, this is a new goal to achieve."Victor Montalvo"The Bermudez brothers are my dad and my uncle. They're twins. They came from a hard life. My mom is from Juarez. It was really dangerous there. My dad is from Puebla. They had to walk through the desert and then get in a van with like 14, 15 people. Then drove from Texas to Florida."Victor Montalvo"My parents have told me this story millions of times. They're always like, "You need to appreciate. We came from this. We came here for you guys. The older I get, the more I understand."Victor Montalvo"My uncles always told me to be proud of who I am and where I come from. They're always reminding me like, "Hey, you're Mexican. You're an Aztec warrior. Don't forget that." I'm proud of my roots, but I'm also proud of where I was born, USA."Victor Montalvo"My dad instilled in me was to be the best at what I do. It doesn't matter what I do. If it's a doctor, even a janitor, a cook, or a mathematician, it doesn't matter."Victor Montalvo"I wish people knew about the culture was that, yeah, it's basically peace, unity, and having fun. It's a big party. It's not just about the competition. It's about the people you meet, about the culture, about the friends you gain, you know?"Victor Montalvo"We bring a different type of essence. We bring the feeling, the vibe, the having fun, peace, unity, and having fun. That's what we bring."Victor Montalvo" I'm going to be the first USA breaker to win a gold medal for the Olympics. But for me right now, it's just reinventing myself, reinventing my style."Victor MontalvoRead More#Champion of Champions: Athlete Voices with Victor MontalvoJun 4, 2024How Breaker Victor Montalvo Almost Ended Up In A Death Metal BandAug 9, 2024The History of BreakingNov 4, 2023
