I still don't care for 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.Comment

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.Last edited by BoxingIsGreat; 08-28-2020, 09:17 PM.Comment

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.Yes, the talent pool is still quite small with the females, but it is expanding, and with the top woman getting a lot more exposure now, this will see more athletically gifted, talented and powerful young woman take up the sport.
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.Comment
