Marie Houle is a professional boxer from Quebec, Canada. She is 31 years old and was born August 15th. She is currently fighting at the walterweight division and her last fight is been all over the web and some of the comments about the fight are that it was a mismattch due to the lack of experience from the Maxian Zapata compared to the Canadian and also because of the age difference that they both shared. Her record is 4-0-1 and Jeanette’s was 2-4 which might not seem like a big difference but considering the wins it ends up being one in some people’s point of view of the fight. Cris Cyborg made a post on her Instagram showing respect to the young fighter who lost her life due to the many punches that happened over the match.
