• Jenn Perella: Female Bantamweight Prospect (boxing247.com) — A New England boxing promoter plans to bring rising bantamweight Jenn Perella to fight in Quincy in May 2026, giving local fans a chance to see her in action. The 42-year-old Milton native balances motherhood, full-time work, and an intense training schedule as she chases a world title, with more bouts expected at Encore Boston Harbor later in 2026.
