Or the humbling feeling of standing in the shadow cast for centuries by the towering spires of Angkor Wat that makes me want to return more.

Jordyn Edewards, 22 of Albany, is just rounding off her first year of fighting in amateur MMA.  “I started training about a year and a half ago,” Jordyn Edewards said. “I ran track in college, but my senior year I decided it just wasn’t for me. I needed another athletic outlet and my mom encouraged me to try boxing.” Jordyn Edewards shadow boxes before class begins at Ramos Boxing Club in Albany.
