The first lady of British boxing, Jane Couch fought a war with the establishment that you cannot even imagine today in order to get her license to fight.

Jane talks about her case, her struggles, the attitudes she faced while discussing her biggest nights in the ring, fighting the likes of Lucia Rijker, Jamie Clampitt, Holly Holm and many others through her decorated and ground-breaking career.

She also reflects on the high-profile TV shows she was used on, the women who took up her legal arms, meeting the likes of Marvin Hagler and Angelo Dundee and much more in this honest and funny but, at times, terribly sad interview.
