I've seen both of them fight (usually on the undercards of big HBO fights). Martin looks fairly competent (relative to her female competition), but Ali's daughter decidely less so.

Frankly, the best female boxers are about as talented as marginally skilled male amateurs. And the latter would quickly dispose of the former in any bout of equal weight due to the conspicuous differences in strength and quickness.

Well, yeah, but only because you won't let us bite, scratch, kick, and bend pinky-fingers backwards. :D

Sure, but it is still more entertaining than women's basketball..... The problem is that there are not enough female boxers yet. And, I do disagree, Laila Ali is a brawler. She has dominated all of her fights. Agreed, the competition is meek, but she knocked Christy Martin out in four rounds. 20-0 is a great record in boxing, regardless of your sex.
