(NOV 12) Retired WIBF/WIBA
strawweight champion Terri Moss was awarded the Most
Influential Person in Boxing Award, and the Critics
Choice for the Georgia Boxing Hall of Fame on Saturday,
November 5 by the Georgia Fighter's Association. Terri also
accepted an award for her former trainer Xavier Biggs, placing
him in the Georgia Boxing Hall of Fame, and stood by as her
fighter, junior lightweight Jackie Breitenstein (6-1, 5 KO)
received the Georgia Female Fighter of The Year award. "It means
a lot to be awarded by my peers and critics," Terri said, and
acknowledged Xavier's appreciation in his absence. Jackie
Breitenstein promised a lot more excitement to come in her
career as she returns to the ring December 3.
Terri also held her third Atlanta
Corporate Fight Night on November 3, and the evening hosted the
reunion of the 1984 Olympic Boxing Team, who were all present.
Atlanta Corporate Fight Night 3
was held at the Foundry at Puritan Mills, and raised funds for
Stand Up For Kids. The '84 Olympic Boxing Team Reunion was
organized by Xavier Biggs, whose brother Tyrell, was a gold
medalist. "It was an amazing evening, to have all these
Olympians together again, as a team for the first time," Terri
said. "The bond they shared as a team has not diminished with
time, nor have their accomplishments as the greatest Olympic
boxers."
