    I can see pros and cons to it. In many ways your right, but also wrong, as the rounds are fought at a higher pace as a result of the two min rounds.

    All the public want to know is the date of Shanny's rematch and whether Earn is going to use the fight to headline one of his 16 cards per year on DAZN UK

    Women in mainstream boxing was done for a few reasons

    Cost, they must be saving fortunes not paying men to fill in
    They see Ronda Rousey and wanted the next one of her

    To be fair all I've seen of Alicia is the Harper fight but based on that I'd say she could walk Mayer onto a good right for sure.

    Sticking a world title fight on as a late replacement at 2 weeks notice, and one of the fighters missing weight because of the late notice makes it hard for me to take it take seriously

    Listening to that, there’s no chance Benn against any of the names mentioned - Broner etc - would have been a Sky PPV. A domestic scrap with a Brook or Khan probably would, because Sky could hype that up and proved it with Khan this year; anything else would have been a fight night card at a decent sized venue. Anyone care to defend Hearn here?

    This is a big problem with Womans boxing. By the time they get going the bell rings.

    There’s plenty of people who think it s boring as it is and some are.
    Those solame people would complain of extra filler on cards if it was 3 min rds.
    Obviously it would benefit some fights and not others.
