    Female boxing sucks, and the only reason we're forced to watch it is due to 'diversity' and the promoters wanting to appear woke.

    I like female tennis, even female athletics to a certain extent, but as others have said, they're not made for combat.

      I like Santa, I hope he pulls it off, but I just don't see it. I think Al is making a sacrifice.

        It's cute when couples have matching names.

            If you're this set in your ways, it's unlikely any evidence or event is going to change your mind (regardless of how entertaining the fight is). However if women can be successful in MMA, there is no reason they can't in boxing. The reason it has been, is largely because of the girls backgrounds. A young girl is far more likely to take up judo or karate , than they are boxing. This means their overall skill level is far higher by the time they reach the age of turning pro with something.

            If you watch a random fight outside of a bar, most men look absolutely clueless and seemingly cannot throw a punch properly. If you took 1 of them and trained them for a few years, they're still likely to suck by your standards, because they haven't had years and years of rigorous fundamentals and sparring. This isn't a gender thing, it's a teaching thing.

            Women's boxing is still in it's infancy and steel tends to sharpen steel. The more women take it up fro, a young age, the quicker the skill level will rise with it.

            Personally, the most entertaining fights of the night from matchroom's fight-camps, were the female fights. Though Donovan vs Barret was an incredible scrap to be fair

              It's like watching a fight in the school playground, yeah there's a bit of action, but no real strength.

                Eh, me and him have had various minor beefs before. I think he's just a respectful guy. As outlandish and crazy as some people on here come off you can usually tell they mean well. Then you have pond scum like HitManTommy who should be made to drown in a vat of diarrhea.

                    I hear you, but are females even that popular in MMA?

                    Rousey was famous for a while, and I remember hearing people at time claiming that she would KO Mayweather.

                    The thing is, the p4p best woman on the planet would get demolished by an equivalent male journeyman.
