The Final Round: The Autobiography of Jane Couch

by Jane Couch, Abi Smith

Overview

The story of one woman and her fight to be able to box. Seeing herself simply as an athlete wanting to do something she loved, Jane Couch found herself ostracised from the male-dominated world of boxing. But Jane fought back - and ultimately ensured that future generations of women in the UK wouldn't face the same discrimination.
