      In fairness, no one cares if a women wants to compete against the men generally. But yeah. Still dumb.

      Oh and the guys would probably be all for it. They be bragging the whole time no matter what they’re packing.

        Like guys who drive big trucks… Guys who like to fight are likely compensating for something. I don’t think they want people looking 🤣

          One common feature of top athletes is the belief that they are the best in every way. When it comes to boxing, they say most never do as well after the first time they get KOed because thier illusion of being the best is shattered.
