Aye, hand speed was very good I wonder what the competition is like in her divisionHorse wrote:Pretty good.

I've watched most of her career through the amateurs so kind of knew what to expect - she looked a lot better than she has done in the last 12 months, she appeared to go stale in the amateurs. She's a bit easy to hit and needs to keep her hands a higher but all in all a good start to her pro career.

I'm looking forward to following her in the Pro Ranks, her hand speed is crazy !Deno1986 wrote:I've watched most of her career through the amateurs so kind of knew what to expect - she looked a lot better than she has done in the last 12 months, she appeared to go a bit stale in the amateurs.

I have zero interest in women's pro boxing. It's not the skill set, I just find it hard to watch women belt each other

126, 130 and 135 are pretty tough divisions tbh.kbackup408 wrote:Aye, hand speed was very good I wonder what the competition is like in her divisionHorse wrote:Pretty good.
Re: What did you make of Katie Taylor's debut ?
Good, but I wouldve liked to see her matched tougher.

Out of interest, what do you think of the lower weights? Seems a lot of people who dislike women boxing also seem to dislike the lil guysboxingknockout wrote:I have zero interest in women's pro boxing. It's not the skill set, I just find it hard to watch women belt each other

Re: What did you make of Katie Taylor's debut ?
It kind of depends if I know the fighters. I watched every Dave Macauley and Duke mCKenzie fight it could, I liked Michael Carbajal and Humberto Gonzalez...... and obviously I know chocolatito, but as you grow older you have less time to obsess about boxing and I don't really know the top 10 at some of the lower weights. I guess I start to get into it at featherweight and I think Vasyl Lomachenko is exceptional..., but yes I know my higher weights betterBoxing Prospect wrote:Out of interest, what do you think of the lower weights?

She looked good, but her opponent was not up to much, took a bit of a thumping.
