The world champion Mexican diver Diego Balleza turned to OnlyFans after lacking the financial resources to support his training for next year’s Paris Olympics

Mexican aquatics athletes have been impacted due to the ongoing disputes between World Aquatics and Ana Guevara, the head of Mexico’s national sports commission. It resulted in a halting of monthly payments for aquatics athletes since January.

The Mexican federation president Kiril Todorov was suspended by World Athletics after the swimming federation failed to follow the governing body’s good governance standards. A commission is now in charge while new elections are held.

Lacking the funds to train, Guevara, 28, has had to find his own ways to support his training costs and other expenses. 

For the 10-meter diver with a perfect physique, Balleza discovered his new source of income on OnlyFans, a platform where creators get paid for their images or videos and is known for its pornographic content.

Balleza, who came in fourth in the 10-meter synchronized diving at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, charges $15 per month to access his content. He has uploaded 138 photos and 26 videos up till now.
