    If the link don't work the article is on Ring Magazine about some female dude named Pat Manuel....

    What's your thoughts???Will we ever see him/her fight professionaly vs men?? How would you react if a male-turned-female fight females???does him/her transgender need to be drugged tested it's clear him/her takes Testosterones...?

    Not sure what to think, dont really have a problem with it. & i do recall a male to female transgender mma fighter but don't recall the name. As they had put it, once the procedure is done any advantage a man would have ie greater muscle mass would be gone. I find that somewhat hard to believe but i honestly have no clue.

      The male to female in MMA was Fallon Fox, I think she still fights but she isn't really any good and I think she's old too. I don't have a problem with it in any way, I used to when it was Fox, but I recall reading an article which said that, given her treatment, she'd actually have less testosterone in her body than a someone who was born female and I watched her fight and she got dominated.

        I'd have no problem with this. Its obviously an unusual situation, but I feel men have physical advantages over women thus Pat here is climbing uphill. In fact if there should be a problem for him it should be related to his safety, but since boxing gots such a low point of entry I think he should be fine. This already happened in MMA when Fallon Fox was beating up on a bunch of girls for a minute. I had a problem with that cuz she was a woman, but in a mans body which is a solid advantage for her.

          That's right, thanks. I dont have problem with it as long as the male to female/female to male transgender doesn't have an unfair advantage/ disadvantage.

              if IT competes against males, i have no problem with it.

              id have more respect for IT than serena williams and caitlyn jenner.

              no offense.
