(MAY 11) Tonight at the Route 66
Casino Hotel, in Albuquerque, New Mexico in the mainliner, Mary
McGee will be fighting the home town queen Holly Holm, in
a 10-rounder, for the IBA and WBF junior welterweight world
title. Holm is defending these two belts--and calling it
quits in the boxing world to enter into a new arena in MMA.
Retired boxer Stephanie Jaramillo
who has also fought Holm in the ring, worked with McGee while
she was in New Mexico, in preparation for her fight tonight with
McGee. Who better else would be a great training partner
than someone who has fought Holm in the past.
Stephanie said, "I wanted to take
the time and thank Mary McGee, her manager Lori Steinhorst and
her coach Carlos and Sparring partners, for asking me to work
with Mary. It has been an honor getting to know you champ.
Your a hard worker, a kind person and going to do great things
in the future. There's not a lot of money in women's boxing. And
with the training camp that Mary has done pretty much all goes
on training and she still is donating a portion of her check to
female boxers in Africa that are less fortunate. Mary you really
are a amazing person!"
