not surprised he doesnt want to sign any of them, must have realised pretty quick that noone gives two ****s about katie taylor. I didnt tune in and youd have to pay me to sit through that ****. Know they are skillful but its not for me, the same way i dont watch junior boxing or the midgetweights
Poor Adams, she is the most underrated female boxer, but the skill gap between women and men boxing it's unbelievable.
You would never see an olympic man champion fighting the way Claressa Shields fought on her debut.
Not surprised really, might not have been enough money on the table plus I don't think her style is right for the pro's and her fights would just end up being messy/boring fights.
It is going to take a long time to build up the profile of women's boxing, if it works at all. However with Katie Taylor, she has a better style for the pro's and will at least be in some exciting fights.
