Classic Women Warriors Boxing Management:




Laila Ali joins with Classic Women Warriors Boxing and Bad Girls Boxing in support of the Women Boxers of Kampala Project.
Retired World Champion Boxer and Elite Athlete Laila Ali (24-0 21 KO) has offered a donation and support to assist the Women Boxers of Kampala Project.
“I have seen the video’s and read the reported stories on the plight of the female boxers in Kampala, Uganda. Although I am aware that people are living in poverty in many countries including the United States, I am moved by the drive and determination these women possess to rise above their circumstances. They have set goals for themselves that others would think are impossible. Even though they lack adequate equipment and are literally training in the mud, they show up day after day, staying committed to their dream of competing in the Olympics. I know the amount of hard work, determination and preparation it takes to participate in the sport of boxing. To attempt it with literally no tools or support is difficult to imagine! These women truly inspire me!
I applaud Mary McGee for her unselfish gesture in giving a portion of her fight purse in support this group of less fortunate female athletes. Mary has shown that she is not only a role-model who is willing to help others along the way, but is also a young woman of good character and humility. For this, I am proud and inspired by her as well!
I have known Lori Steinhorst for nearly 14 years. Therefore, I understand her mission and passion for the sport of boxing. Beyond that, we share a passion for our communities, the health and well being of children and the nurturing of the human spirit. Through this project, the women of Kampala will be empowered and they in turn, will touch the lives of the women in their communities.
Lori Steinhorst, President of both Classic Women Warriors and Bad Girls Boxing said “I am deeply touched by Laila’s decision to help us with this project. I know that she has a very busy schedule, a family and plenty of other commitments that require her attention. That she wanted to be a part of this project tells me that she recognizes its value and we are grateful for that. Laila Ali is the type of athlete and role model these women need in their corner. I know that the Women Boxers of Kampala will be thrilled to receive this news!”
Eddie Montalvo, Vice President at Classic Women Warriors stated “We are so honored by Laila Ali’s commitment to the Women Boxers of Kampala. I know that is something they will come to treasure for the rest of their lives.”
