    You may or may not have seen this film about Mike McTigue.
    I bumped into his granddaughter around 2 years ago and she told me a few stories.

    A bloody canvas.

    Surely Katie Taylor has to be involved in this conversation at this stage. I know The thread is over 10 years old at this stage, but her success and what she has done for women’s boxing, cannot be dismissed.

    We should defend our way of life to an extent that any attempt on it is crushed, so that any adversary will never make such an attempt in the future.

    WUM.

    There's what, maybe 30 lightweight women pros, maybe 5 decent ones? Not even in the conversation.
