Kathleen (Kitty) Walsh, a 20-year-old college student, is a real fighter.

The young boxer is battling her way through the Daily News Golden Gloves tournament. The semi-final round for both men and women takes place this month, leading up to the finals at Madison Square Garden on March 25-26.

Walsh is hoping to emerge a champ – and make her way from New York to London for the 2012 Olympics.
