Before she enters the biggest fight of her life this week, the “Iron Lady” fought in boxing match against Belgian actor, Tom Waes. The actor hosted a show called “Tomtesterom” with premise being Waes trying to accomplish tasks from getting into the Guinness World Records to flying a homemade airplane to becoming a professional boxer.
In 2007, the latter became a reality when he fought de Randamie. Waes took it seriously by training for three months. Well, three months wasn’t enough to overcome the experience of the Dutch striker.
The match made it to the final round and Waes came out trying to knock the featherweight title challengers head off. de Randamie curled up against the ropes, Waes attempted a flurry but de Randamie blasted him with a right hand and it was all over.
