Mikaela Mayer Making A Difference and Paving the Way
by Blanca Gutierrez
February 12, 2018
     
   
   

(FEB 12)  This Sunday, on February 12th was an amazing day for the female boxers who showed up at the Beautiful Brawlers Sparring Camp hosted by Sacs Finest Boxing Teams coach Sonya Hernaes at the Midtown Boxing Gym in Sacramento, CA.

Olympian Mikaela Mayer showed up and all the girls were excited. Mayer ran a warm up before the sparring began and it was a very special experience for each and every boxer and coach who participated.

 

Mayer is such a humble beautiful person. She gave each and every boxer personal attention giving them knowledge, sparring with some and lifting up everybody’s spirit in the gym. All girls had some very good rounds of sparring and there was that feeling in the gym that anything is possible if you keep working hard to reach your goals.

 

After sparring Elite boxer, 132 lbs. Lupe Gutierrez, #1 ranked JO 132 lbs. Daisy Bamburger and up and coming 165 lbs. Alexis Gomez. We gathered together around the ring and Mikaela Mayer, who is sponsored by Everlast handed each boxer a pair of Everlast gloves. It was such a beautiful ending to a day where each girl got to work out, learn and some spar with a boxer they admire and aspire to be.

USA boxing has developed a wonderful program for the girl boxers. The program has grown so much and Mikaela Mayer is proof that the USA Boxing alumni have so much to offer. We have girls who are 2020 Olympic hopefuls that have invested many years, and money for equipment and travel to get to Nationals. To see that Mikaela Mayer is an Olympian and now an undefeated professional who is the first women signed with Top Rank is very empowering.

 

At Beautiful Brawlers Boxing we engage all female athletes to participate at our sparring camps. We provide a safe place to spar, get good work in and boxers get to work with seasoned professional boxers and former WBC & WBO world champions, Martha Salazar, Eliza Olson, Carina Moreno, Melissa McMorrow and now Mikaela Mayer. Mikaela Mayer will be hosting a seminar at Beautiful Brawlers Gym Babyface Boxing soon with the date TBA.

To all the women coaches, managers, professionals, who have been doing so much for womens boxing, events like these make our sacrifices so worth it. To see these girls re energized, focused on their goals and excited is why we do this. It was and it always will be about the girls.  The Beautiful Brawlers 

In 2013, in a Flash of the Past, Mikaela Mayer was WBAN's top picked for "Top Rising Star of the Year" with our 2013 WBAN Yearly awards. At the time we wrote the following:

"Keep your eye out on THIS amateur boxer!  Mikaela Mayer, #1 with the AIBA
, 64 kg, is not only a boxer to be reckoned with in the ring---but she is also creating a stir outside the ring.  

As one writer wrote about Mayer, "Mayer is well-honed technically, with a crisp jab and a solid right hand, and good footwork. She possesses the often elusive and immeasurable traits that any successful boxer needs -- toughness and grit, ring IQ, and the ability to adapt on the fly." 

The lead-in to that writer's story on Mayer, " Is Mikaela Mayer Destined to Become the New Face of Women's Boxing?"

WBAN can answer that question without a moment's thought:  "Absolutely, Yes!"

In 2018, Mikaela Mayer has lived up to our prediction, and is well on her way to be not to far in the future a world champion!
