Margaret Sidoroff-Canty

As a fighter, Sidoroff was known as "Mean" Margaret for good reason: She went undefeated in capturing the Canadian Amateur Gold Medal at the 1998 National Championships, then went on to capture an Intercontinental Professional Title and Three Professional World Titles. When she decided to hang up the gloves in 2000, Margaret assumed managerial control of the Border City Boxing Club and concentrated on working hard to become the best coach she can be, achieving her Level V Certification. Margaret became a National Team Coach in 2001, when she took the Canadian Female Boxing Team to Scranton, PA for the Inaugural Female World Championships. On October 13, 2007, Margaret was inducted into the Windsor and Essex County Sports Hall of Fame (for pictures of the event, click here)! To read more on "Mean" Margaret, click here!
