He wasn’t saying that when he was promoting Savannah Marshall.

I still think Marshall-Shields is slightly bigger.
Taylor / Serrano is will be competitive.

Marshall / Shields won't be.

It's a difficult one. For women's boxing to improve it needs exposure (inspire the next generation) and the only way it'll get exposure is if it's on men's shows. It wouldn't pay to put it on in it's own right at the moment. Women's tennis was of a limited standard until Navratilova et al turned up and they were inspired by the likes of Court and BJK.
Yeh, remember last year the women’s card they had. Last 3 fights were
Women’s with KT at main event.

They made it available on Sky Mix.

Even some of her early York Hall cards she headlined, they were on Sky Mix as well.

Tunes in halfway through, thought It wasn’t that bad. Taylor a bit better but losing interest in watching her.

Never rated Benn but he’s improving so much, I imagine he’ll get outjabbed at points but win comfortably.

Only trouble is if people keep buying it he'll keep serving it out .
People should vote with their wallets .
I don't think anyone is buying it tbh but he's just tucking it on mens shows and then bragging at how successful it is. If it was it would have its own shows not on the mens

Think Cameron vs Taylor would be the biggest womens fight in Brirish boxing.

Think Shields vs Marshall is biggest global fight.

My brain cant figure out how this is going to go down. Not at all. not strategicaly, not how each will take the others power, not who will gget tired first (if it lasts that long). really feel a bit clueless on it.

think benn stops him but im basing that of age and the fact that smarter people than me made the fight and i think they think connor stops him,

The day you get a women's fight and you think, "shall I watch that, or shall I watch (say) Joe Smith jr vs Callum Johnson?" and you can't decide is the day Women's Boxing is equal. :box:

How long will that take ? will it ever ? :maybe:

Conor wins, it's if he blow Chris away or gets a close "good learning fight" 12 rounder out of it.

One of the cleanest living we’ve ever seen tho. Literally wrote the book on nutrition. I sort of hate him secretly in the way Homer hates Ned Flanders.


Anyway, I can’t see Benn losing.

It sold really poorly. Loads of free tickets given out to gyms around here and loads of “competition” winners.

CA doesn't look small or soft or anything, but he looks old, slow and powder puff already.

10-9 CB
CB looking sharp and wins R1 easily. Lots of bodyshots.
