    I dont care what boxers have between their legs, if its high quality entertainment then fine, but its not, its extremely poor quality with extremely low skill sets with zero punching power.

    Yeah and it don't help the best female fighters in diffrent weight classes.

    If they was smart they learn takedown defense n go to UFC. Those boxing skills with defense for grappling n submissions is deadly. They guarantee to take over

      They need a Christy Martin or Anne Wolfe in this ERA of Social Media in which you have a female fighter scoring Viral Knockouts similar to what Seniesa Estrada did to Miranda Adkins

        Sorry ladies.
        It’s super boring. They are unskilled with no defense and no pop. Almost all female sports are boring

            Generally speaking, not even the females care about female boxing.

              Agree & apparently that's what Shields is doing next year. Women's MMA is a more fun watch too since even if women lack power they often don't lack for submission skills which makes finishes more common than in the ring.

              Also MMA is a equal opportunity employer with pay per view with probably 10x as many female main event PPV cards than boxing has had.

                  Are any of you cool guys gonna watch the Katie Taylor fight? You shouldn't. That's the only fight I will be there for, and if the undercard is good. Not watching the heavyweights most definitely. I despite that division like you guys do the women's boxing.

                    I was amazed to see one judge gave Katie Taylor all of the first five rounds vs Persoon, which I thought was absolutely ridiculous. Carl Frampton who is friends with Katie Taylor scored the fight 98-92 Persoon.

                    I don't like it when people write off womens boxing and say it shouldn't be a thing. There's no reason at all for them not to box. And the top women generally do have boxing skills.
                    I enjoyed the rematch the other weekend. Taylor showed good skills. I liked how calm she was in there and stood in the pocket with clean shots. Peerson showed great stamina and heart but she just threw all she could hoping something would stick. Hopefully it will bring sum more challengers up or down to challenge Katie. It would be great point where there’s lots of good fights to speculate about in woman’s boxing.

                      We don't need sexism.
                      Nothing sexist about not finding women's boxing appealing. Don't be so sensitive. Personally I don't care for it either.
