The standard of international female amateur boxing is very high and with more International Federations offering fully funded squads, women may be enticed to stay amateur and progress through the system as opposed to turning over.
2012 will have a big impact too.

The standard is actually pretty good at the top level. We filmed the Female ABA Finals this year for Hatton TV. Take a look if you are curious !
