That huge turnout easily surpassed the previous record, set in Moscow in 2017 when 3,000 people showed up for boxing class. After Saturday's attendance figure was certified by a Guinness World Records team, Sheinbaum posted a video thanking "the champions and those who made this great triumph possible."
