whos this?????

No female boxer will ever get a Male fans interest unless she is extremely hot. I suppose if they forced them to fight topless more fans would tune in.

What an idiot. Equal pay for what? Does anyone actually watch female boxing? Is the competition for women as good as it is for men? Good thing in boxing is that promoters are not forced to sign up boxers.

i just assumed this article was about ronnie shields when i read the headline.

Same here. Started reading the article and thought who is she?? Never heard of her lol

Women want the same recognition as men...but it must be on their own terms.

So, basically they want equal rights / privilege but be held to a different standard.

Logical, right?

Cheeks in the seats is right on the money for a pay recognition. So put more A$$ in your cla$$.

Well, Loma was making 6 figures in his first handful of fights, why not check in with your promoter on this?

she was making 6 figures in her first fights? what the hell is she complaining about? Those are Ray Leonard numbers. Maybe she needs to educate herself on the sport and realize that 90% of fighters come up making $100 a fight for their first couple years.
