Flyweight Ava Knight (10-1-3, 5KOs), who defeated Mariana “Barbie” Juarez, and is considered one of the supreme female champions of the world, is hitting the gym for an early 2013 return. Knight denied the rumors of a planned rematch with Juarez on December 15th.

Ava, who is currently training with Ben Bautista and his father Eliot Knight, became the second female boxer to win the WBC Diamond Belt, when she defeated multi talented Mariana Juarez by UD.

“I’m thankful with God because I know I have great things ahead of me, great projects and I have to be at my very best” she said.
