I know there's a lot of hype of female fighters like Shields, Hammer, ect... and I know it'd be politically incorrect to state this on most forums, but luckily we're all about honesty here.... I don't give a flying fuck about watching bitches box. Never have, never will. We had a lil run when female fights weren't even televised anymore, but sadly... there seems to be a resurgence. Fuck female boxing.
Pretty poor fare. Every now and again, it produces a funny gif though, like the Anne Wolff - Vonda Ward KO.
No. I have tried to give a shit since in track-and-field woman athletes can be entertaining, but their boxing is just too poor. In women's boxing there are no knockouts or even a chance of them ever happening, unless one of the fighters is 25-0 and the other 1-6 or something. And even more unfortunately, that often is the case. The only time I'd pay to see a woman fight is if they were beating up Slystaff
Yeah, I can totally understand the appeal of women's track n field, and women's tennis... they can excel in both those sports and it's compelling to watch. But in boxing and basketball... please don't even televise it. They're horrible.
It's just like watching really really shite club fighters with Paul Spadafora power... except they are wearing sports bras It's terrible
Women’s fighting is horrible. They are not dynamic enough to keep us on the edge of our seats to expect the unexpected, a brutal knockout. Pretty much 90% of the time it’s not gonna happen. What’s even worse is the fact that they take up valuable space on most cards these days. Same goes for WNBA. Horrible boring group of women who look they were pulled straight from a middle school bench.
If they can actually box/fight(Rijker) I'll watch if it's not a complete total mismatch(like most of Rijker's fights)... The little of female boxing I see today is a pretty (1)chick who can't fight for shit vs a chick who just put on the gloves 2-3 weeks ago for the first time. (2) a huge amazonian hideous bitch who can swinger her arms around vs. Fragile a bit more easy on the eyes chick who can't fight or is wayy too small for the amazonian...(3) 2 former lingerie model(? ) with the facial bone structure of Jose Luis Castillo pushing punches out like girls....
No, it's horrible to watch. I don't mind it in the Olympics though, although I'll never go out of my way to watch it.
Jake Lamotta's ghost just told me that the only time two women should be boxing eachother is if it's over which one is gonna cook you dinner then blow you.
Fortunately it is like a fight here and a fight there. UFC has a women's fight or 2 on most of their PPV events now. A major reason why their buys are plummeting because they are horrible to watch.
REED Looked Forward to Christy Martin's Fights on Don King's PPV Undercards Back in the Day...Ann Wolfe Looked/Talked Tough and Her Manner of Fighting MATCHED... Laila was Intriguing and Her Fights were Fairly Entertaining, but Her LACK of Interest in Facing Wolfe Revealed Laila was Only Milking Her Daddy's Name, Which Turned REED Off from Women's Boxing.... Until.... Claressa Shields...She Aggressively Talks the Talk AND Walks It...Christina Hammer is a Skilled, Formidable Foe and they're Slated to Fight Next if REED's Not Mistaken... There's More Talented Female Fighters Today Than @ Any Other Time...Admittedly, REED Can't Watch Just ANY Women's Fight, but if it's Women Ranked Within the Pound for Pound Ranks, and it's Packaged on an Undercard, REED Gives it an HONEST Viewing... REED
I’m happy to see that feminism is still largely absent in the General discussion forum. I agree with Ugo in I like women in track and field. I also somewhat enjoy women’s tennis. I can tolerate swimming as well. But combat sports, basketball, football (soccer)....they can stay away from those things and leave them for the stronger vessels. If they want to participate...by all means, since we all like to watch cheerleaders do their thing.
Ronda Rousey fights were quite entertaining for a while. She's actually right up there with McGregor as one of the biggest draws in the sport's history, having managed to drive over 1 million PPV buys several times. PPVs were priced $59.95 for SD to $64.95 for HD so not exactly cheap.
Not sure why but I can tolerate watching women fight in MMA, but watching them box is cancer of the eye. Probably because I'm less sensitive to quality control in case of MMA.
Female boxer, Muslim, with impaired vision, muscle-fatigue and Scottish: 'I'm a Muslim, visually-impaired boxer' "the Saturday morning sessions at the Kynoch Boxing gym in Glasgow's Kinning Park have been popular with women uneasy in a "normal" Lycra-dominant gym environment".
Marketing hype and bullshit. Roussey was unbearable...unless she was getting her head pinged back repeatedly by a Brazilian steroid monster...that was hilarious.
