Juan,
Thank you for ordering the book! While I could not write about all female fighters due to space limitations, I did write extensively about Margaret “The Tiger” MacGregor. Please see pages 222-225 in the book for specific references! Thank you again for your support of my book and of women’s boxing!
All the best,
Malissa

I’ve been reading this again today, the fourth or fifth time I’ve read it and it’s a great book which IF you have NOT already read, I’d suggest you do. You will find plenty of “used” and “new” copies on sites like Amazon, Goodreads (in UK/Ireland) & Easons of Dublin. IF they do not have in stock they should be able to order it for you.

Thank you so much, as always, for your amazing support, Michael.
