    I've never watched female boxing and never will, but for some reason I love the movie Million dollar baby. :conf

    Same here. Unless its for the eye candy factor, they're just boring as hell

    Never watched female boxing. I have watched female UFC because they show it sometimes.

    Umm... I'm not into female sports in general, though. It's like watching a lesser, lesser version of male sports.

    It's legit. Some have great craft, some are true warriors... There can be more interesting matches with less savagery then their dude counterparts so I think those that don't like it maybe haven't given it a chance or most likely because those guys are the ones who only like powerful punchers and cavemen.

    I enjoy it.

    And there was a semi-popular local female boxer that used to work out in my gym who I would talk to and see at fights (others and her own) who was pretty cool.

    I think the women tend to have a more sustained level of action and less snoozer fights. Not sure if it is the shorter round length or what.
    On the downside, the power level with women isn't the same. A lot less knockouts. That could also explain the willingness to trade more.

    Nope. Female sports are ****, unless you're desperate enough to want to watch some bouncing ass or ****s.

    The only issue I have with women's boxing is the depth in quality and talent isn't the same. I don't have an issue with a woman wanting to box and if they have skills then I would enjoy watching them fight. I don't see why a persons *** is an issue either a person can fight well or they can't.

    I have a 4 year old daughter and that has obviously broadened my perspective on topics like this quite a bit. That said, I have to agree with the above post.

    I have nothing against it, and it depends on who's fighting, I tend to want to watch the prettier boxers, which is a catch-22, because I don't like seeing hot chicks **** up each others faces. I love female MMA though, yet I don't like Male MMA, go figure.
