Question
I am from Riverside,ca,Villegas Park boxing Club.Iam training a girl that is 13yrs old.It is hard to find fights for her and i had heard that their was a list or web site that i can go to of girls that are competing.Have you heard of it,and can you tell me were to look?thanks.

Answer
Hi Jack - there was a female boxer several years ago who was taking care of a female database.  I haven't seen her in a long time and I haven't seen anything else up to date.  You might try calling Dick Jones and see who in the LBC you can match your girl up with.  If you email me at mel@amateurboxing.com, I can give you contact numbers for San Diego, Central California, Nevada and Arizona.
