Malissa Smith is a women’s boxing historian and author of A History of Women’s Boxing, the first comprehensive history of the sport published by Rowman & Littlefield in June 2014.
Smith’s love affair with boxing began as a young girl but wasn’t realized fully until she walked into Gleason’s Gym in January of 1997 and began to train. While she’s never competed, per se, she has had to test herself beyond her limits.
Boxing not only awakened her, but truly uncaged her soul bringing her to other passion in life, writing. Smith continues to write the Girlboxing blog which has been a labor of love since she first started it back in October 2010.
Her current boxing related activities include:
International Boxing Hall of Fame – Selection Committee Member and Voting Member for the Women’s Modern Boxers and Women’s Trailblazer Boxers induction categories.
International Women’s Boxing Hall of Fame – Board Member and Speaker
Ring Magazine – Women’s Boxing Rankings Committee Member
Smith makes regular appearances on boxing podcasts and related shows to talk about the sport. Her public appearances also feature discussions of boxing, women’s empowerment, mentoring, and related topics. Her most recent appearance was at the 8th Annual International Women’s Boxing Hall of Fame induction event at the Orleans Casino in Las Vegas on August 14, 2021. Smith had the honor of presenting the awards to the 2020 and 2021 Inductees and Special Awardees.
