Female Boxing

Post by creeky »

After watching the news tonight - in which they showed the results of Mohammed Ali's daughter winning a fight this weekend - got me thinking - I totally DISAGREE with women boxing ......

I TOTALLY understand the freedom of choice blah blah - but really - I am not a fan of men boxing, and dont understand why they would want to do it - however, the sight of a female , with a bloodied face after a fight - was just atrocious to watch :-?

I know there will be differing views - but should women box??? (and guys - not talking mud wrestling blah blah in here :lol: )

What happened to equal rights?

If women want to vote, drive, go to war, etc, they should be able to box too. I don't think there's a woman boxer out there that I find attractive, but if they want to box then I say have at it! :D

Why I said "freedome of choice" - but I personally found it gross .... not that I find anything attractive with male boxing either ....


Footballers are a different story tho :wench:

If they want to do it FINE but like any other all female sport it's boring. Sorry ladies, I don't mean to be offensive by that statement. Tickets sales speak the same as my statement.

I'm not real crazy about boxing, but I'll challenge ANY woman to a mud wrestle. (Provided we do it in VERY slow motion). 8)

Boxing rocks! When else am I going to watch two people knock the crap out of each other and not end up getting a beer bottle broken over my head? :D

A lot of girls train at my gym. Most of them do grappling, kickboxing and rape prevention. It's a great way to stay in shape and learn how to defend yourself.

It is odd though when two girls get in the ring and start banging away on each other. I have a HUGE amount of respect for anyone willing to get in there though....man or woman. A lot of people think they can do it right up until the first time they punched square in their face. It's a little uncomfortable to watch, but I say more power to 'em.
