Wowzers! In the current Me2 environment I think a comment like that can lead to serious jail time, be careful!
I have no idea how they got the fight sanctioned for a WBO world title but it will be a competitive fight and is creating interest in boxing so I'm good with it. If female boxing becomes bigger then boxing as a sport becomes bigger. I've been to some shows in NZ where the skill level of female fights hasn't been great but they have definitely been entertaining.
If you look at the skill level involved in womens rugby now as opposed to 15 years ago it's on another level so maybe womens boxing in the country can take a similar path

I used to pop out and have a cigarette when a women's bout came on but now I don't smoke so not sure what I'd do, I don't like exhibitions or corporate boxing either. I'm going off heavyweight boxing too :-)
