    Comments Thread For: The Women, Led By Claressa Shields, Have Earned Our Attention

    By Michael Rosenthal - Lucia Rijker, arguably the greatest female boxer ever, was asked a generation ago how she felt about those who constantly questioned whether a women's place was in a boxing ring. She turned to the questioner, expressionless, and said with utter sincerity: "It's my essence, it's who I a...

    I like Shields a lot. She's pretty cool. I think Katie Taylor is the leader in women's boxing, though. Taylor is one of the most skilled, versatile, tough boxers I've ever seen. She's also down to earth and genuine.

          You seen Braekhus box, man? Chick's been unified for something like 24 fights, undisputed for about 10 and ain't lost more than a handful of rounds in that time. Different level from the vast majority of all except one or two women (like Taylor). Braekhus and Taylor I could see hanging with the guys up to a respectable level. Only thing is the First Lady gonna be 38 in a few months and can't have long left at the top... it's a fair size difference but if some kinda catchweight could be sorted between Braekhus and Taylor... damn.

              she's a very confident fighter. I bet that hood trash can whip your unconfident whiny ass. Grow one little man boy.

                  Writer could've mentioned the fact that it was taylor who practically single handedly got women's boxing into the 2012 Olympics. It was her campaigning and skills that got the sport recognised by aiba to a point that Olympic committee agreed to bring it on board. It was that Olympic showing that fast tracked women's boxing into the general pro boxing limelight. To say women's boxing is "led by shields" is innacurate and fills the need for american sports fans to feel their athletes are the centre of the universe. Taylor is the leader in female boxing, and deserves to be as she dragged it into mainstream recognition. Eddie hearn also deserves a shout out for his promotion of Taylor, and it's rare I give kudos to a brit.
