Gail Grandchamp

Gail Grandchamp (born March 13, 1955) was an American female boxer. On 16 April 1992, after eight years in court litigation in Massachusetts, she gained the right to become a boxer, as a state Superior Court judge deemed it was illegal to deny someone a chance to box based on gender.[1] During her efforts to gain the right to box as an amateur, she passed the age of 36, the maximum age for amateur fighters. She instead pursued a career as professional boxer.[2][3][4][5]

gollark: Basically, somehow Lyric/Hactar broke Esobot's hosting, so I took matters into my own hands, took the publicly available source code, and ran it on my own server using AutoBotRobot's token.
gollark: ++help
gollark: Doesn't exist.
gollark: So, basically, I can run arbitrary bot *programs* on my bot's *token*, and they show up under the same account.
gollark: 60 second timeout.
