Another Weekend of Scarce bouts Worldwide in Women’s Boxing
(MAY 10) Latest update on worldwide female boxing this weekend. As I previous wrote a month ago, that according to this weekend and many previous weekends throughout the last year or two…we still are not seeing the activity change much for the regular club venues to feature female boxing, even though we are having some fantastic high-profile bouts going on that are being televised and showcased.
I went through Boxrec this weekend, looking at the worldwide activity, and AGAIN….folks “it ain’t much.”
Many of the cards have NO WOMEN’S BOXING on the cards–and the ones that do have the females featured, they are on the undercard, four round bouts, etc.
Here are the listed bouts taking place WORLDWIDE for this weekend: I did not list any incomplete fights, that had no opponent listed, and there may be other fights going on that we are not aware of. If they are please email me to let me add their fights at wban100@aol.com
