Heather Hardy is a fighter. She transcends the limits unjustly assigned to “female boxers” and is writing her own legacy.

A self-labeled gym rat, Hardy calls the legendary Gleason’s Gym in Brooklyn, NY her home.

It’s at Gleason’s where Hardy ply’s her trade, day in and day out, putting in countless hours of training.

The mother of a nine-year old daughter, Hardy also teaches kids how to box as part of the Give A Kid A Dream program, which is designed to help children from disadvantaged backgrounds.

In a day and age where brash talk and wild social media antics will sky rocket a fighter to the top before their skills have been on display, Hardy prefers to prove her mettle in the ring.

A bona fied fan favorite–as evidenced by her ticket sales–Hardy is undefeated as a professional with an 8-0, 2 KOs record.

Her next fight is an eight-round bout this Friday, March 21, 2014 in Brooklyn, against Nydia Feliciano.

Watch Round By Round Boxing‘s new feature, 1 Round, where Jeremy Flores and Jeff Charles bring you interviews with boxers–both male and female–as they train hard to rise up the ranks.
