La Femme Fight Night shines spotlight on women's boxing

La Femme Fight Night, Milwaukee's first official all-female amateur boxing event, took place on October 10, 2026, organized by women-only boxing gym SheWolf and community fitness organization Strength in the City. The charity event featured fighters from youth to adult divisions and raised money for SheWolf's Lioness Academy, a program that trains girls in mental resilience through boxing. The event had been in planning since summer 2026 and drew participants motivated by personal empowerment as well as broader social and political concerns.
