Why isn't female boxing at the same popularity as female MMA?

50% of female MMA are ******s undercover. Female boxers look more natural..

One word: stoppages

Because men like seeing women on top of each other? Of course, MMA fans like seeing men on men a lot more.

Throw out some names.

marketing. women's combat sports are blatantly lower tier of competition, there is no sport in which that is more apparent. the 155 lb women are slower, less skilled, less powerful, less durable, less experienced, less tough, less eveyrthing than the 155 lb men. it's just nature, a woman's body and brain was desisgned to bear children and take care of them, a man's was designed, in part, to fight other men.

I think it's because of 2 things.

Gina Carano was a really attractive woman and seemed to be good at MMA, so they marketed the hell out of her about 10 years ago, which got it started, then she got demolished by Cyborg, who got the rub (wrestling term) from Carano and became a name because of that.

Then Ronda Rousey came along and wasn't completely homely and was marketed by UFC as this Mike Tyson type figure who could even beat the men, as well as taking on Hollywood, and becoming a sex symbol of sorts, which gave all of the women in UFC (especially Holly Holm, Miesha Tate, and Amanda Nunes) the rub.

Laila Ali could've been that for women's boxing, but she quit before she could give other women the rub and generate interest in the sport.

Now, there is no relatively attractive, media savvy, American woman who seems to be really good at boxing to generate interest in the whole sport.

The WNBA has this problem too.
