OK, OK - but my point that I could not see why a better woman boxer would not beat a worse male boxer still stands. Unless we are saying that not a single female boxer could beat any single male boxer? (and if we are saying that, therefore we are saying is it because they are female rather than because they are not currently good enough?)
i'm saying it because there isn't a female boxer whose skills are exceptional enough to beat a real male boxer unless he is significantly smaller than her..and if she's given the luxury of a huge weight advantage then that's the same as the billie jean king thing...special rules..no woman boxer will ever be able to beat any male boxer of any caliber that weighs the same as her..in tennis bille jean king didn;t have riggs hitting her...BTW (laila ali looks like trash when she fights) and if she's considered to be one of the best female boxers it took her four rounds to beat a woman 20 pounds smaller than her imagine what a man would do to her....
