    Banning women's boxing is crazy.

    There is enough talented and quality women boxers in the sport that we have seen to not ban boxing for them.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    It took me a while to warm up to women's boxing. The Amanda-Katie fight was a classic, though. (BTW, I still think Amanda should've been given the decision). That fight was better than a lot of men's fights.

    The point to me is protect the women in the process. Have rules and officials around the sport for this purpose.

    And for fukk's sake... keep men off the same ring.

    each to their own , and naturally many feel the same way as you , otherwise the sport wouldn't exist.
    but personally, i don't want to see 2 women punching shit out of each other.
    I don't know if that makes me a Chauvinist or Misogynist or whatever label anybody wants to give it , but I'll take it whatever.

    i'm not saying they should but on the movie starship troopers they had an american football type game & both men & woman played against each other, i wonder if all their sports were mixed in that universe? that's one way to solve the issue. drop the separation. everyone competes against everyone. you're either good enough or you're not

    Being honest I think some of the hardest fighters in the ufc are women. I've come around on women in combat sports. I feel like I'm talking from both sides of my mouth watching some clear TBA record padding guy march into a fight with an obviously superior talent and act like it's any less brutal than women boxers having a go. If anything, women's boxing has become more competitive at a higher level...albeit in selective cases and slooowly.

    Default Female boxing at the Paris Olympics

    I say, if there is nothing to hide from the Algerian and Taiwanese boxers, then they should allow the IBA to release their medical testing history as to why they were banned from competing by the IBA and let the IOC make further determination.

    This would settle this in the court of the public, if you ask me. May not serve any of the organisations who come out with egg on their faces for being wrong, but it would settle the matter from our perspective.

    I don't trust this woke-sissy-gay agenda. They would go to no ends to prove their point. I also understand the IBA is a corrupt organisation that is headed by gangsters. We need resolution to this.

    There's a thread on this already, ykda. Maybe you can ask the mods to merge them.
