Female boxer, flyweight Keisher “Fire” Mcleod-Wells will return to the ring on March 31st at BB King Blues Club and Grill in Times Square, New York City.

The talented 32 year old McLeod-Wells will be featured in a card that will be promoted by Dibella Entertainment titled “ Broadway Boxing.” It will feature promising New York fighters.

Optimum Sports Agency’s Claire Young informed us that this will be Mcleod-Wells’s first bout since her controversial majority decision loss to the undefeated Laura Ledezma in her backyard of Panama.

Manager Damon de Berry says “It has been a frustrating time for Fire as I have had difficulties getting bouts and finding suitable opponents willing to face her.” The highly decorated amateur boxer has not fought now for 6 months and is looking forward to getting back into the ring on March 31st.

Since her last bout there has been a change in her team also, with training duties now resting with trainer Marcos Suarez. “Marcos has really helped, I feel as if I am improving all the time” says Fire.

However, no opponent has been named as yet.
