I have been a fan and avid viewer of all combat sports for over 20 years. I was once a Judoka, which is what eventually piqued my interest in Mixed Martial Arts.
For 25 years I’ve worked in healthcare, and now am trying to make something that was a hobby, into a full-time endeavor.

Women’s Boxing has a new rising star and her name is Hailey Pennington! The 25-year old West Virginia native is managed by Gwen Legge’s Eruption Boxing & MMA Management. The management team has a lot of talented fighters in their stable with Hailey being the crown jewel!
Like many boxers before her, boxing was in fact in Hailey’s blood. Her father Justin owned a gym and encouraged his daughter to get involved in boxing. While she didn’t get involved in boxing right away, a few life experiences pushed her in that direction. Life experiences like standing up to bullies in school for her friends and surviving a house fire. Hailey also wanted to be a mentor to young girls who may see boxing as a potential career path.
So eventually Hailey did go in the career path of boxing as her & her father opened a boxing gym where she began boxing training. Hailey boxed in National Tournaments for USA Boxing souring to the heights of number 2 in the nation!
Hailey then signed with Gwen Legge’s Eruption Boxing & MMA Management and turned pro! Pennington has had two professional bouts and is 2-0 with two knockouts! So her boxing career is getting off to a blazing start!
Hailey is also giving back as she serves as a coach and trainer to up and coming boxers at her & her fathers gym.
Hailey hopes to get back into the boxing ring for her next bout around March. The boxing match will likely be a six round bout.
