(APR 19) 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 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 few 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.
Tonight at the Club Once Unidos, Mar del Plata, Buenos Aires,
Argentina, promoted by O.R. Promotions - Osvaldo Rivero, there
is a four-round bout on the undercard: Bantamweight Micaela
