As an amateur, he represented Puerto Rico at the 2000 Olympic Games in Australia. Cruz became the first boxer to come out as gay while still active professionally. He was among the first class of inductees into the National Gay and Lesbian Sports Hall of Fame in 2013. In 2016, Orlando Cruz dedicated his match with Alejandro Valdez to the gay citizens murdered at the Pulse nightclub shooting in Flordia. Nearly half the victims were Puerto Rican, and Cruz lost 4 friends in this tragedy. At the weigh-in for the match, Cruz proudly wore a pair of rainbow-striped briefs, and the bell tolled once for each of the 49 victims killed in the shooting. In 2017, Cruz was featured as part of a campaign launched by Lululemon exploring masculinity and strength through a series of short videos, aimed to challenge traditional stereotypes of masculinity. |
