Put another way, I would rather watch prime women's boxing than a shot name fighter getting bludgeoned into CTE for no money, which is how they have built undercards in the past. Can't say I would want a main event tho
It's absolutely **** compared to men's boxing. The thing is, women's MMA is absolutely excellent. Why is that?
same shits is going on in Hollywood videogames and comic books basically anything predominately male.
my theory is the mixed part of mma most chicks aren't great strikers but do well wrestling and with bjj
Well they're the two best in the world right now and Nunes must be all time p4p #1. SO striking is at a premium in women's MMA.
I think this experiment definitely has flaws, because they chose a monster like Bas Rutten to test the gloves. How much a women boxing glove weighs? 10 oz? Anyway, that's several times heavier than an MMA glove. Women just don't have enough strength to swing those boxing gloves fast enough to hit really hard.
Right. So the difference will be bigger. Smaller hitters will see a smaller difference. Because smaller gloves will minus x% of overall hitting power. The experiment is flawed but in the other direction.
No. Just no. This is so absurd, omg... Smaller gloves might minus overall hitting power only if the puncher is afraid to break his/her hands. How many women in MMA reduce their hitting power intentionally to save their hands from becoming broken? Close to zero percent, I guess. Ask yourself a simple question. Would you rather want a woman to hit you in boxing or MMA gloves?
What? Smaller gloves don't limit hitting power at all. Ah, I see what you mean, no I mis-wrote. Bigger gloves will reduce hitting power by x%, but that real difference will be larger with a harder hitting opponent. What I mean is the lighter hitting the fighter, the smaller the real difference.
