Malissa Smith is the author of A History of Womens’ Boxing, published in 2014. It is the first comprehensive history of the sport; Ring Magazine dubbed it “the Bible of Women’s Boxing.”

Malissa is a co-host of the popular WAAR Room podcast, a founding board member of the international Women’s Boxing Hall of Fame, and contributed a powerful essay, “How Boxing Uncaged Me,” to a book we put out last year via Balboa Press, The Difference. Malissa’s follow-up to A History of Women’s Boxing, titled The Promise of Women’s Boxing: A Momentous New Era for the Sweet Science, is out the first week of June and will be celebrated by an official book launch on June 15 at the iconic Gleason’s Gym in Brooklyn.
