Holly Inducted to International Boxing Hall of Fame

“I don’t feel like this award is just for me — it’s a group effort,” Holm said during her speech. “I’ve been surrounded by people that only want what’s best for me. They were very selfless, and had love and support for me.

“I don’t see this as my Hall of Fame day, but a joint effort.”

Joining Holm in the Hall of Fame this past weekend include Floyd Mayweather, Roy Jones Jr., Miguel Cotto, James Toney, and Shane Mosley. Holm, along with Christy Martin, Laila Ali, Lucia Rijker, and Regina Halmich became the first women fighters to be inducted.
