Women's Boxing/Female fight game ever gonna be good/big?

3a) the Rivalries...

Nope, Boxing is the Gentlemen's Sport.

This and jay's answer are the real reason.

Boxing as a look is far more manly than MMA. (Staying on your feet at all costs, restricting combat to punching, etc).

MMA looks far more womanly (kicking, grabbing, groundwork, fightwear, etc)

All of this is in accordance to traditional gender roles/stereotypes.

3a) the Rivalries...

You had me at "Ronda Rousey and Miesha Tate sit face..."


Again I don't know MMA but Miesha Tate is one of my favorites

[USMCer]

All I'm sayin is...

Rousey


Cyborg


Joanna


I'm not into MMA but I'd watch them fight

It doesn't hurt to be good looking... (see: Gina Carano, Paige VanZant, Conor McGregor, Jon Jones)... but nobody's investing their time and effort to follow a sport just for a bit of T&A here and there.



Rousey


Cyborg - at 2:25


Joanna

[RA-Box]

Everyone's forgetting the true pioneeer of Women's MMA:

Gina Carano

You had me at "Ronda Rousey and Miesha Tate sit face..."

Again I don't know MMA but Miesha Tate is one of my favorites

Meisha Tate -- some of the most epic displays of heart in MMA history.. in victory and defeat...

Down 3 rounds, with time running out in the final round...


Let her arm be twisted and torn before tapping out..

Women should just **** off from combat sports altogether

They're so damn bad is comical.

Not their fault, though. women are just physically inferior compared to men, SHOCKINGLY inferior. not only in the strenght dept, in EVERY possible dept, reflexes, speed, dexterity, you name it

I have no interest in watching women competing in MMA when I know the lowest ranked male bum in the UFC would wipe the floor with all of them effortlessly

Everyone's forgetting the true pioneeer of Women's MMA:

Gina Carano

Marloes Coenen = True Pioneer of WMMA


(debuted in 2000, 6 years before Gina)


But Gina is next level as far as sex-appeal goes. She's the exception, if anything. She's hot by any standard, not just "hot for a fighter."

[TheCell8]

The problem is that it's overshadowed by the WMMA which is actually popular and interesting to watch.

Of course one the main appeals to WMMA is the apparel they wear is more revealing and thus appeals to a male dominated audience. Plus the rounds are shorter.

No one wants to watch 10 round Womens boxing fights between ugly women... If you're ugly you better be a Mike Tyson type that takes out fighters in 1 to 2 rounds.

[Bigg Rigg]

Boxing is way behind MMA and Kickboxing at his point as far as the girls go.
