(APR 10) Most of the time, WBAN covers the amateur and professional female boxers and we publish stories on their accomplishments in the ring---especially when they are crowned with world title belts that are well deserved.  You may not readily recognize these champions in this photo----but they are an example of  the rock that helps female boxers accomplish their goals and dreams in the sport----the family and/or parents of the boxers!

Multi-world champion Ava Knight wrote today, "I give all my love, gratitude, and appreciation to the two people who have always been there for me no matter what. My parents are my rock, my foundation, my inspiration, and my motivation. If they aren't proud, my work isn't done. My job in life is to make them happy. I can't wait for the day I can give back to them for all they have done for me."

Blanca Gutierrez of BabyFace Boxing/Beautiful Brawlers, could not have summed it up any better when she said, "These are the kinds of feelings and messages all world champs should be stating! Great role model? Heck Yes!"
