(JULY 26) Maori female boxer
The Nightmea Motu is set to wear the rainbow flag for her
upcoming boxing fight against Rangi Hetet on August 7th at Te
Rapa Racecourse in Hamilton.
The two-weight division New
Zealand boxing champion Mea Motu considers herself as an ally to
the Rainbow and gender diverse communities. All of the people in
the gym that she trains at, Peach Boxing, either has a family
member in the community or is close friends of someone. I wear
the flag because it does stand for my family and Im proud to
have takatāpui in my family Motu said.
