Comments Thread For: Ana Maria Torres Q&A: 'Nobody Cared About Women's Boxing'

It may be unsolvable. I've tried watching WNBA games and I'm out before the end of the quarter, it's just that tedious.

The only female boxer I can think of who has the coordination, fluidity, and natural instincts to score high on the eyeball test is Katie Taylor, but she lacks that stopping power.

I'm so much more likely to go to the kitchen and make that dagwood during the women's fights because it's almost always a tedious chore to watch.

With all the Caitlin Clark hype I watched some women’s college basketball this season and found it to be a refreshing surprise. The women aren’t as strong and athletic so they focus on the fundamentals a lot more, like running set plays and passing multiple times to get the open shot.

It was kind of cool to see.

Me too and womens' college hoops can be fun. The college kids and their fans have so much more spirit going for them.
The WNBA is just devoid of pleasure, excitement, meaning, and for lack of another term, grace.

FWIW, I do like watching womens' collegiate softball. Some of those women have great swings, and to be honest, they look good in those tight spandex uniforms
