“Boxing is my family, my best friend, my sibling, my partner. In the ring, you’re alone, you can’t hide. You have to be your own coach.”

Doubt fuels Cindy's fire. She punches back at skeptics, turning doubt into her power in the ring. There, it's all her — no hiding, just giving it her all for every second of every bout.
