What a great woman! How great her power is! I´m only 60, still sparring & competing with the youngsters. But this woman, in her wheelchair, teaching the youngsters every day. All the fights I had are no big deal comparing with the great fight she is having since so many years.
I´ve to take my hat off & wish this real fighter all the very best!
Very cool. There has to be something behind a sharp mind at that age, and keeping it active. I'm convinced that staying active even late in life is the key to keeping your wits, barring any diseases like Alzheimer's.
@fhqwghads I agree. Despite her physical handicaps, it's obvious that she's still got it together mentally. If you don't work your brain, it'll lose strength just like muscles, so even if getting around is an issue, at least doing something is important.
I have lived across the street from Thelma for all my life and im soo sad to report that Thelma passed away tuesday June 29th 2010 at 87 years old she will be missed but never forgotten RIP THELMA TAVARES
Inspring, heart warming and very impressive. When I saw them pan into the husbands photo, I got choked up, it's like she is living those moments with him by her side still. Beautiful.
Oh thank god noone was stupid enough to actually talk her into the ring. I can't remember if i clicked on this to see an 85 year old woman get knocked out or watch a young woman get her ass kicked cause she was afraid to hit the 85 year old woman. Either way nice story.
do you have next weeks video from the end teaser? cuz i'm betting those ladies aren't using snail mail to keep pen pals alive

@PuraVid4 I agree except it's the boys and girls club, so I doubt they pay a cent. Even the gear is probably provided
