    We all see things differently.
    Fair enough.

      Men used to watch women ''boxing'' to see pretty chicks brawl.

      Those days are over.

      So, why do men watch women ''boxing'' (or women sport) ?
      Is there nothing else to watch ?

          Well, if Arum is making comments like "no one cares about women boxing...ESPN supports me..." It could be misinterpreted as "ESPN doesn't care about women's boxing." That's all you need in 2022 to have women in all sports having a beef with ESPN! They might want to say something like "Bob Arum's statement does not reflect..."

            That's why I said they won't be open about it, even if they agree

                Women and the family, coaches, and supporters of female boxers.

                We all get where he coming from, but if my daughter a fighter or im a manager to a female fighter why would I be ok with his comments?

                    Yeah you right.... But it's a dumb comment to make as a promoter when you most likely have female fighters and if he wasn't so old eventually would come across boxing's Randa Rousey and he just lost out on signing her. ( If Arum wasn't old ASF)

                    Dana did the same thing, luckily he has a monopoly on MMA

                      Where else will women ''sports'' find a home ?
                      They are inferior and leaves to question why men watch it.
