(JUNE 16) With a busy life outside of
boxing, Mia St. John continues to prepare for her June 23rd fight,
that will take place in Edmonton, Canada. She will be fighting
Jelena Mrdjenovich of Canada, in a 10-round title bout.
Juggling her daily workout,
which begins at 6 a.m., sparring, her children, personal and
promotional appearances, she keeps to a tight schedule. |
|
She carries in her heart and mind a
dream she planned for herself and has carried it out meticulously.
The words ring in her ears "It Can Be Done!" Spoken to her by her
mother and hearing then spoken by the great Cesar Chavez....she
believed in these words and she has lived by them.
You don't really talk to Mia
about winning or losing, to her, it is all about how you
show up for the showdown. She will walk in ready to battle,
work hard and walk out just as proud regardless of the
result. (Inset photo to right: St. John with son) |

She has been successful in
boxing, and she has been successful in life....she seems
content with that. |
