Since when do women know what they want.

If theychange the rules and next you hear, is them complaining about it.

I’m afraid if Cameron is being advised she is being advised wrongly . Boxing in its entirety is struggling badly financially apart from Saudi money which is providing a false economy ( and they are not interested in female boxing anyway).
boxing as we all know is a business and fiscal infrastructural rules apply .
female boxing as a spectacle is dire and not popular with the hardcore fans or even the casuals therefore generates very little revenue which reflects in the purses offered to 99% of females.
Taylor , Serrano and Cameron are the exception in fighting terms and I have massive respect for all three for their talent , dedication and professionalism amongst their attributes etc but as a round robin they are a great business modal to generate worthwhile purses for everybody concerned but now as Katie may have gone ( I hope she has for own wellbeing going forward) Chantelle is really short of a financially viable opponent so all she is doing by vacating is harming herself , who can she fight for real money now which I guess is partly behind her opportunity to speak out now as a Ryan fight is worth about as much as a rolled up newspaper with the budgets that are available on terrestrial tv . I feel for her as her dance partners in and around her division are not economically rewarding . Going up and down divisions to find suitable opportunities is also problematic in many ways and a discussion for another day as is the three minute round issue .
