It’s no secret that women’s boxing has nowhere near the participants - or the money, or the audience - that men’s boxing has. Broadcasters of the sport generally feature men; the Amateur International Boxing Association has gone so far as to encourage women to box in skirts.

Girl Boxer: A 10-Year-Old Breaking Barriers | Op-Docs | The New York Times
/ thenewyorktimes
I'm a boxer trying to go pro and make it to the 2020 Olympics. All I gotta say is keep your head up, and keep fighting for what you believe in and what you wanna do. I'm sure there's plenty of female fighters just as hungry as you!
Chris Lasekan keeping your head up gone get you knocked tf out
hahah keep "fighting"
When you get hit recover
Ye I agree I
I'm sorry..
I'm a boxer keep on going just because your girl doesn't mean that u let anyone tell u down keep on going girl
i will take both of you on at the same time, round for round,
Natalie Martinez I am too
Hope it all goes well for you
Love her confidence, love the father's support, and love the championship dream. What an inspiration.
TRUE!!!!!
she's gonna be successful in the future
@@malicool1304 she got braain cancer
I saw time ago she training with Katie Taylor, that girl is skilled
You go girl.
This young girl proves that girls are not just defined to do girls stuffs. Girls, women can be physically and mentally powerful. We shouldn't put ourselves in a box and think that boxing is for boys, basketball is for boys or whatsoever. I mean being strong? That's how it makes us all beautiful. Gender shouldn't affect our behaviour. If u wanna box and you are a girl there's nothing wrong with that. As long as you have that passion and you like what you are doing.
U go girl. Keep making your parents proud 💪
L Sanchez good joke!!
%
L Sanchez Well said but you should also understand that men are physically more capable by nature default. That's why Men and Women division separate in sports. But yeah not all Men are so determined and obsessed with their goal and passion. That personality and obsession within them is what we call Strength.
L Sanchez She looks slow and competition is very low.
MrRedskins0021 Yeah seeing that too . But she's a novice, and kid as well.
You go get them girl and don't let anyone tell you what you should or should not do. much love.
Pop's...🙏🙏🙋 I feel you 1000 percent. About the going pro part🤦im a boxing mom of 2 boys 1 8yrs old and 1 is 11 I stop being nervous after the 9th fight of my oldest the 8 year old hasn't matched up yet.. But, I kno when it's time.. I have to relive that rush all over
The first boxing book I ever read was hers and honestly she has inspired me to keep going and never get up!
She's at a young age which is good for her to box so that she can proceed on her career in the future , I love the dad's support towards her, hopefully you fulfill what you want to achieve 😊👍
It's sad to watch 2:54 and she mentions her head hurting. They tell her push through it but she has a brain tumor now so👀 I wonder how many times she complained of a headache before the diagnosis.
Jesselyn I'm rooting for ya! You got this! Wooooooo!
Yeah girl 👏👏✌️✌️👍👍💪💪💪
I am impressed with this young girl. Keep it up. Keep your chin up. You got it kid.
she gonna become a real champ!!! ......she is very cute ....I want a daughter like her.....
Just because you seen a video of one girl doesn’t mean she gonna be a champ I’ve seen better in my gym there’s a lot of female fighters out there just as hungry as her
That girl has a lot of confidence
her dad is Danny Garcia?
Altair Ibn La-Ahad that's what I tought too!
Lmao!
Umm ya
im also ten and just starting to do boxing and this video really inspired me to keep pushing harder everyday to achieve my dream!
im 44 and i am boxing against her next week, i am the better fighter you will see.
@@walmartian😑
Great father/daughter dynamic, a basic ingredient for success. Keep it up JessSilla!!
Wow wot an amazeing girl with her confidance and winners attitude she,ll go far keep up the good work xx
Good luck girl i hope one you become a champion 😊💖💖💖💖
She’s the type a person that could box a 19 year old and win every time she’s a very dedicated and impressive boxer
rollercoasters are scarier
No
I’ve been doubting boxing but I think I could try it 😁👍🏾😁
you will never make it past me
She is big 10 years old i started whene i was 7 and i am so strong now
She’s older than me now... Im 12 and she’s now 13

Get going girl🥊💪don't give up on your dreams in the future!
super respect!!! never quit on your dreams!!! ill be watching !!! Gold metal!!
Keep up the good work! You can be anything you want to be! Keep your head up! And never ever give up! You will be successful!
I’m just now starting to box and I would say ur an influence and I’m trying to do better than what I’ve learned so we have big fouls in this boxing courier love u and this
"Jesszilla" Love it girly!! Btw who's watching this in 2021??
God bless her 🙌🏻
Beautiful piece!
Its's inspiring from my point of view that a young girl can be so courageous and sure of herself, nevertheless, I don't support boxing as a sport for anyone, never-mind a kid. I don't think it's the best choice for her, that her father or both her parents are making, because she's still growing. How much more damaging is it to her brain, that's not fully formed or developed in its capacities?
Christine K seriously who would have their daughter boxing by this age? Surefire way to make her end up with brain damage
She is so intelligent/smart, any kind of physical sport will not last long as well as danger of getting badly injured.
Aim high n soar like an Eagle.Congrets to both f u!!!!!!she will be a Good fighter.
So sad to see the father is really NOT as the same level of support that she needs.
GIVE IT ALL ! Girl or boy that's the same my god. She is going to be so disapointed with him.
RIP Jesselyn
A 10 year old getting brain damage is what it really is. I love how people talk about breaking barriers, lets see what women say when a man does a girlie sport.
I like her she should keep on following her dreams because I may not know what it feels like to be a girl boxer but I do know what it feels like to want to follow my dreams and hopefully fight in the Olympics one day and she's lucky because she started at a very young age I started one year older than her but since she has more experience she's probably better than me 👌
Congratulations young lady,God bless you
in thailand 7yo fight all the time
So true. That's their baseball and cheerleading past time.
many are forced
welp they don't want to go to bed hungry.we don't have gov.welfare here in thailand.
God i pray this girl fullfills her dreams in this sport. May God bless her with the right people that will help guide her in that direction.maybe ask Ryan Garcia to help coach u or train u!!🙏
how manny kg are u and height cause im findding it up to find matches ive won 2 by knockout and lost two by split
Hey at least if she ever gets in a fight at school she gonna won
I'm twele and i've been doing mma for about 2 years now and she's good it is really good it proves that girls can be baddass fighter too...

Her dad obviously wanted to have a son.
Andre thats why theres a lot of female boxers
That statement had nothing to do with his...
and that is the art of being a passive hater. what does you comment even have to do with this beautiful story??
lol
Are you sure ! My father is against me boxing !!
I’ll fight you I’m a 7 world champion boxer
I'm a 37kg,12 year old boxer and I'm a begginer I have recantly wan my first fight.i used to be a kicboxer I was really advanced got my back belt and I was winning titles.my last fight was a world title at 11 years old,and my first fight was when i was 5.i decided to quit because I wasn't going eny where with it when I get older.it In boxing I need to have fights aswell so I can become at a advanced level again.my dream is to go to the 2024 olimpics and become a professional boxer.maybe one day I will meat u.
You shouldn't of given up
Good dad.
Awesome girl
I want to be a boxer but I don't know where to go. Dose anyone know where one is for free near Erwin Tennessee?
There wont be any boxing gyms that will be for free, frankly if you are really passionate about it you will find a way to make it work. And the closest gym near there is in Johnson City called Tri Cities Boxing and Fitness
the best training is to go into the amazon jungle and fight the animals there, if your hard you go north to fight polar bear, and finally to africa to fight the best animals. then when you fight a human its easy mode
@@walmartian Shut up.
I'm down to box, I usually practice kickboxing but I need to work on my boxing so like hmu
do what you want to do (and avoid brain damage) just dont let SJWs use you as propaganda. youll be hated faster then otherwise physically possible. its healthier for your future career too that you steer clear of those people, its not the rep you want
Remember me I'm his niece I'm dyansi Silva
Need an update
She had a brain tumor 😢
2024 Olympics ! PLEAS pleas !!! Yea ! Just do it " go for it ! 👍🏼🇦🇹✌🏼
