Women's boxing is still in it's infancy. There is just starting to be a good amount of decent amateurs coming up as young kids in the last few years. One of the problems with the professional side of it is that a lot of women get thrown in to the pro game far too soon because they are either too old for the ams or because a promoter sees it as a chance to make some money.

With the lack of competition comes a huge amount of mismatches, thus making for fights that A: doesn't accurately represent women's boxing and B: that are not interesting to watch.

The more women are accepted in to the sport and better we'll see the women perform. There isn't a 100 year history of women boxing. It's just beginning for them so I think we need to be patient. I've seen some very talanted women boxers and I think the world will be fairly surprised when they see them compete in the Olympics. (if that day ever comes)
