    If they are fast enough and elusive enough I don't see why they could not beat a male boxer, this is boxing so as long as they keep out the way and score points they can win the fight. Imagine a boxer with Persoon's frame and Taylor's movement down in the lower weights, a woman would be able to boil down much further than a man. I don't see why they could not compete against some of the lighter punchers in the division.

    What are you talking about?

    A professional male featherweight would destroy any woman whatever her size.

    You on the wind up - if Big Belinda from Croxteth hit anyone under 5 feet 10, they are facing the sky

    Check out Loi Chow. Completely dominated by Margaret MacGregor over 4 rounds. Chow was rubbish and lost all of his three fights but based on that performance its fair to say MacGregor still had a few levels to go through.

    It's well known that Katie Taylor bested Frankie Gavin in sparring.
