COOPER
Las Vegas, the "boxing capital of the world", is also home to one of the top female fighters in the entire world. Aside from an impressive amatuer ledger, Melinda also holds the distinction of being the youngest woman ever to be granted a boxing license by the prestigious Nevada State Athletic Commission, Since that time, this talented fighter has wasted no time in establishing herself as a "force to be reckoned with" in the boxing arena.
Aside from being a dominating presence in the ring, Melinda has been featured in several nationally- recognized magazines, including Girls Life, Teen and World Boxing. Her personality and striking good looks coupled with a strong foundation and solid boxing skills has made her a crowd favorite in her Las Vegas community and a popular feature on nationally televised boxing programs.
From the beginning of her professional career, a few short years ago, Melinda's career and obvious potential have been rapidly unfolding in front of television audiences everywhere, including appearances on FOX Sports and ESPN. While some fighters prefer to develop the necessary skills beyond the watchful and sometimes critical eye of the public, Melinda's maturity and advanced skills put her right in the middle of boxing's spotlight from the very start. To some the bright lights would be intimidating, but for this poised and professional prizefighter, its' nothing compared to the glare of the Las Vegas Strip. So, even in a city that's synonymous with glitz, glamour and gambling, it's a safe bet that Melinda Cooper holds the winning hand in the future of women's boxing.
