The Big Punch by [Everlast](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/premium-boxing-training-equipment) is a campaign that responds to the amount of verbal abuse that female drivers get in Peru, just for being female. Everlast devised a [women-empowering campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/o-positiv-health) to show that the [boxing glove brand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/womens-motorsport) would not go down without a fight.

To really show girl power, a boxing glove-shaped car was developed by a team of all women. It was sent out onto the roads with Olympian Natalia Málaga behind the wheel—she's known to be a little bit temperamental. Female drivers who experienced abuse on the roads could send the licence plate with a location for Málaga to track down. In the boxing glove car, she'd give the rude drivers a punch by bumping into the back of their cars, giving them a taste of their own medicine.
