Representing Baltimore’s renowned Upton Boxing Center, Teaira Skinner has been boxing since she was 16. Although she is only 26 years old, she looks up to boxers such as Laila Ali, Ann Wolfe, Aaron Pryor, and Pernell Whitaker.
As a kid, the Texas native Chelsea Washington used to get into fights almost every day. She became interested in boxing and started training with Coach Sam Clarkson.
Washington has trained on and off for 15 years, but she never got the chance to build her career because she had kids. Now the 31-year-old has been training consistently; she’s focused and ready to start her boxing journey.
