Ex-Boxing champion Mia St. John had a stellar career in boxing. The former WBC, IBA, and IFBA Lightweight champion last fought in 2016 when she finished Lisa Lewis via a fourth-round TKO. But ‘The Knockout’s battles have not always been in the ring. She has been open about her struggles with mental health and alcohol addiction. So, when Mia recently shared a stunning photo with her fans, it filled them with joy, and they couldn’t resist praising her timeless beauty.

Alcoholism has been a significant factor in her life, from growing up in an abusive and alcoholic household to her ex-husband Kristoff St. John’s death. An article by Your Teen Magazine linked Kristoff’s death to heart disease associated with alcoholism. But things look positive for the retired boxer as she continues her battle against addiction. In a recent post on X (new Twitter), the San Francisco resident shared a stunning picture of herself in a bathing suit. As expected, her fitness and radiant looks left her fans in awe. Many fans commented on the image, complimenting her appearance and offering words of encouragement to continue her efforts.
