This past week a select few had a real boxing treat indeed as they were lucky enough to watch five time National Canadian amateur boxing champion, and Olympic gold medal hopeful, Mandy Bujold spar with five time world champion and current W.I.B.A and W.B.A. champion Lisa “Bad News” Brown. Both fighters have the pedigree to know the appropriate way to use these type of workout sessions and both enjoyed the experience so much that arrangements are being made to get together shortly in good old Kitchener for some “open to the public” sparring sessions.

At the post fight press conference for the Brown vs Julaton WBA championship at Casino Rama a few months ago I could not help but notice Olympic hopefuls Bujold ,Colin Fish and Mary Spencer in the crowd. They seemed to be really enjoying the experience. Two thoughts came to mind at the time. Firstly, that Mandy would, given her style, speed, and pedigree, give Lisa some great speed work in preparation for certain opponents we are looking at down the road. Secondly, as I watched Mandy, Colin and Mary beaming and enjoying the show was the thought that THEY NEED TO STAY FOCUSED MENTALLY AS DO THERE RESPECTIVE COACHES. Read More
