Congratulations to Holly Holm.
A society that profits from the harvesting of unborn baby parts is already far 'down the tubes' and knocking on the doorway to Hell!
Nonsense. It's a free country. Get a grip.
Ronda, feel the Bern.
Women's boxing first appeared in the Olympic Games at a demonstration bout in 1904. It is now an Olympic sport along with women's wrestling and ice hockey.
Women's boxing goes back at least to the early 18th century, when Elizabeth Wilkinson fought in London. Billing herself as the European Championess, she fought both men and women. In those days, the rules of boxing allowed kicking, gouging and other methods of attack not part of today's arsenal. Women's boxing dates back to the early 18th century with Elizabeth Wilkinson-Stokes fighting both men and women in the streets of London. During the 1700s, women boxed in staged competitions at dawn, before fans went to work. Back in the 1700s, women took part in more violent forms of fighting: kicking, scratching, and using other methods of attack are not parts of today's boxing rules. This new style of fighting became popular in England. Elizabeth Wilkinson-Stokes is credited for being the first female boxing champion in England.
Where do you draw the line as to what sports women can participate in?
The Romans had female gladiators.
Women are not for fighting. I am not averse to teaching women some martial arts for self defense purposes but women fighting to entertain is decadent as hell. It is very PC and communist, though. When women fight men in the ring it will be complete. Humans are nought but interchangeable cogs in Utopia.
There’s overlap between women boxers and international pornography...
I guess she’ll have a lot of free time to campaign for the Marxist now.
I notice that you seemed to have watched the whole thing.
Also a Country that lets its women fight its battles while its men remain home will not last for long.
Vicarious Misogyny.
I don’t think it is entertaining to watch men fight either.
My mother’s best friend was kicked in the breast and, yes, did develop cancer there.
Lots of pockets got filled with money last week. This won’t go away anytime soon.
