Mary Carey Fighting 'Pippi Longstocking' Tami Erin in Celebrity Boxing

Mary Carey is fighting Pippi Longstocking, sorta — the famed porn star is stepping into the ring to box the former child actress who played Pippi on the big screen.

We broke the story, Mary signed a deal to fight in Damon Feldman‘s Celebrity Boxing promotion … but the only question was who she’d fight?

Now we know Mary’s opponent is Tami Erin, most famous for her starring role in the 1988 movie, “The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking.”

We’re told Tami agreed to a deal and signed a contract for the bout, which is going down April 18 at the Miami strip joint, the Booby Trap.

Anyways, it’s the first time Tami is stepping into the ring as a competitor … and we’ll see if she possesses superhuman strength just like Pippi, who can lift a horse with one hand!!!
