Throughout the history of boxing, generations of family members have come together to watch the sweet science. Whether it was fathers and sons watching fights together or grandfathers buying tickets to take their grandsons to stadiums or arenas, the sport has always been a family affair.

Now, with top pay-per-view events being televised live nationwide, it's not uncommon for three generations (or more) to gather in the same room and share in the thrills of major prize fights.

This is certainly true with boxing's massive Mexican and Mexican-American fan bases and it's no accident that there's a major fight card on the Saturday of Mexican Independence Day weekend every year.

It's an ideal night for bringing these families together and this year is no different with "Star Power: Mayweather vs. Ortiz" Saturday, Sept. 17 from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas as well as Staples Center in Los Angeles.

This event will provide the kind of ultra high quality fight card from top to bottom that offers something for fans of every generation. More...

In a big night of boxing at the Stade de l’Est in Saint Denis on the beautiful Indian Ocean island of Reunion (a French overseas department), reigning WBF womens light welterweight champion Myriam Lamare (18-3, 10 KO’s) will make the second defense of her world title against the experienced former world champion Lely Luz Florez (16-5, 7 KO’s) from Columbia on September 9.

Local favorite Lamare captured the WBF belt in 2009 with a dominating decision win over Ann Saccurato (the WBF 2009 Female Fight Of The Year). She made her first title defence a successful one when she thoroughly dominated and stopped highly ranked Lucia Morelli from Italy last November in the sixth round of their bout.

Morelli has since won the WIBF lightweight world title and is still considered to be one of the best in the game. From 2004 to 2006, the 36-years old Lamara was the WBA light welterweight championess, defending that title five times. She held the WIBF strap briefly as well.

Currently residing in Marseille, France, she is known for her hard and accurate punching. Before turning professional in 2003, she won European and world titles on the amateur level. The September 9 show will not only feature Lamare in the main event, she and her company LM Sport Event will also promote the event. More...
