Fists of a fighter on arms of a girl – Nisa Rodriguez
Tagged: Boxing, latina, New York, New York City
Her head down, eyes glaring, nostrils flared, the statuesque 17-year-old girl threw vicious three-punch and four-punch combinations in the boxing ring at St. Mary’s Rec Center as her manager, taking the hits on his padded hands, urged her on.
“Fight like it’s the last day of your life,” the manager yelled. “Left! Right! Left!”
Nisa Rodriguez hissed and danced around the canvas, grunting as she punched. She paused for a swig of red Powerade, and her father held a tissue so she could blow her nose. She smiled and tossed her long, wavy ponytail over her shoulder, adjusted her gloves and resumed pummeling. Again, her face was as cold as stone.”*
