Interesting attitude. You could make the "don't watch it" argument for badger baiting, cock fighting, dog fighting that you do for women beating each other and lads getting off on it

They're not being forced to fight for people's entertainment. They're athletes who put their lives into what they do. Would ya cop on like!

The women boxers chose to be in the ring though so your point is a bit redundant. Or...

Yes, two unbelievably fit women in a boxing ring, doing a highly trained sport which they choose to be involved in, is exactly the same as cock fighting. Well done.

If you've ever tried boxing you'll know how hard it is even to hold your guard for 2 or 3 minutes never mind swinging digs

Id say you'd be red raw after a romp with her! What a performance best fight I've seen in ages she is simply brilliant!

I love the slo-mo of her shouting "come on" at the Irish support, amazing!

Not sure about that. Hadn't her father channelled her down this route since she was 8? Seems an odd route to force your daughter down

decies

Well done Katie , credit to both boxers , great fight.

Rubbish. Sharpen your sensibilities and let some pride effuse your soul. The support out there today was brilliant. The support we give our sports teams at all levels of international competition is top notch.

So you must be against Judo, Fencing, Karate as well maybe The Olympics aren't for you, you should head of to Saudi Arabia or even Afghanistan where you will get people to agree with you.

Your posts make a good argument for abortion and when its too late for idiots like yourself euthanasia

If you actually knew how Katie Taylor took up boxing and werent talking out your anus you'd know that the point you made is redundant

Guy:Incognito

Jesus. Some crazy double standards being thrown around. Some of the women that get passed of ordinary looking ion here and people cramming themselves over Taylor . She's rough lads and talks like a heavy smoker. A million Irish passports won't change that .

Getting punched in the face definitely won't change her for the better either
