If you don't know Ann "Mitt Queen" Najjar by name, you've probably seen her videos on social media where she is catching the fast and furious punches of fighters, celebrities, professional athletes, and impressive kids.

It started when people at the gym always wanted to do "mitts" with her because of her impressive speed, power, and knowledge of boxing. She has taken that name and ran with it, and on a new episode of the On Her Mark podcast, she joined NBC10's Hannah Donnelly to share more of her story and what she credits for her success.

On this episode we dive into:

  • How she found the sport of boxing
  • Ann's natural competitive nature and fierce mindset
