Alongside its theme of uniting
influential woman in the sport of boxing, the brunch honored
special guest Kelly Swanson of Swanson Communications for her
hard work and drive which ultimately led to her becoming one of
the most highly respected people in her field. Through 25 years
in the sport, she’s worked with names from Riddick Bowe during
his heavyweight title run to Bernard Hopkins and 10-time
champion in five different weight classes Floyd “Money”
Mayweather. Swanson’s experience in developing and implementing
full-scale public relations and marketing campaigns,
multi-tiered corporate promotions, and managing award-winning
events has been unparalleled, and Saturday’s brunch became her
platform to be recognized for her many contributions as she was
presented with the Meritorious Achievement Award by boxing
great, Bernard Hopkins.

The intimate gathering included
40 phenomenal women who have stood out as leaders and supporters
that created a significant role in boxing for themselves while
opening the doors for many others. Guests enjoyed mimosas upon
entering the chic and elegant decorum with a gourmet feast set
for a queen. Each table participated in team building activities
and had the opportunity to win prizes such as exclusive designer
clutches, show tickets, dinner vouchers, gourmet sweets, &
weekend getaways at the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino.
| Following the success of
the inaugural Raging Babe Brunch, which took place on
May 4th of this year, it was decided that this
remarkable event was not only necessary but positively
influential in bringing women that have stood out as
leaders and supporters in the boxing world together.
"The first Raging Babe Brunch was so special, women
involved in the sport of boxing were able to gather
together, cross paths, and begin creating a network to
impact the sport of boxing together,” said Raging Babe
CEO Michelle Rosado. “Being a prominent supporter of
these events and Raging Babe’s overall vision is
something that Mayweather Promotions is proud to be
involved with, said Mayweather Promotions CEO, Leonard
Ellerbe. What Raging Babes is doing is a great thing and
we’re happy to be involved.” As the Raging Babe brand
continues to expand and venture into projects across the
globe, you can plan on seeing a lot more of these
events. For more information on Raging Babe visit
