What weight handicap would a woman boxer need to beat a man?
What weight's do you guys think would be a fair handicap contest between men and woman boxers.
In theory I think that in our modern age of no discrimination men and women should be able to fight with each other, but obviously women being naturally weaker then men would need a weight advantage, question is how much?
I reckon a top female boxer weighing around 154 should be a fair fight for a man say under 120 lbs.
And I reckon a weight of about 168 lbs for a woman would be a fair handicap for a man say upto 130 lbs.
So my question is this, could a top women fighter, say super middleweight or above beat a top 130 lb say Isreal Vasquez or even R Marquez?
All opinions welcome :)

Depends on the fighter
Ann Wolfe is satan with braids,I dont care what sex you are
Hell,I wouldnt fight her
That end of the sport is so raw right now,there are very few legit BOXERS in it
Its not a matter of raw talent,or needing a handicap,its more a matter of a legitimate amateur scene.
By the time most men turn pro,theyve done Gold Gloves,Junior Olympics,the Olympics,etc,etc
Most women are 30 before they even step in to a ring for the first time
A few short years from now,now that amateurs is starting to take off for women,watch the whole scene change
No more talk about handicaps to be sure

Well wasn't Ann Wolfe going to fight that tomato can at her own weight she would of probably cleaned his clock a great female boxer could prolly beat the worst male tomato can at her own weight.

Shes had,not one,but 2 male boxers back out on her now
And Ali wants nothing to do with her
Last few interviews with her Ive seen,shes starting to sound incredibly frustrated
The other name in her division doesnt want to fight her at gun point,so fine,she sets up these side show fights,that at least keeps the punters interested,then the guys decide they dont want to fight her either

For those that remember Billie Jean King beating Bobby Riggs, I don't see why a better women boxer couldn't beat a worse man?
Re: What weight handicap would a woman boxer need to beat a man?
I hate to be a prick, but there were a few women at the gym I used to train at, and after having seen them punch, I really couldn't see any woman alive beating Pac, or even a Marquez brother.
Ann Wolf is a different story. But I wouldn't rally call her a woman so much as "Satan with braids" as someone else posted earlier.

I reckon the landlady at my local pub could smash the shit out of Klitschko.
Mind you, he'd be giving away about 5 stone and 2 inches in height to the big fat hairy bigfoot bitch.
