That was a very impressive fight between two very skilled fighters.
Kateintense, I certainly have no doubt that women can fight, and this fight certainly proves it. As you say, to each their own. Personally I prefer a catball catfight, but I find women's cage fighting, especially bare knuckle fighting, very arousing. There's just something about it. I can't define it, but it is quite the turn on, if you'll excuse my saying so. I think some of it may be, it's so savage and brutal. Women aren't supposed to act that way....at least that's what I always heard growing up in the 50's and 60's like I did. When girls fought back then, it was fairly rare, and when they did fight, it was mostly pulling hair. All that has changed, and I accept it. The fact that girl fights are much more common now, and fist fights rather than catfights are more common, might explain why you see videos of two girls fighting, and several people in the crowd are yelling at the girls to stop pulling hair. I love to see girls pull hair in a fight, but then again, that's a good old fashioned catfight, not a stand up fist fight.
As for bare knuckle fighting in general, men or women, I have mixed feelings about it. I realize I'm being hypocritical, because while seeing two women in a bare knuckle fight is arousing to me, I find the idea of bare knuckle fighting in general a step backwards in society's evolution. It seems like we've come full circle. From the bare knuckle fights of the 1800's and early 1900's, to the advent of boxing gloves, and now we've gone backward to the fingerless gloves used in cage fights, and finally back to bare knuckle fighting. What's next....gladiators? I'm not serious, but I can't help but wonder how long this type of fighting will be sanctioned before it's outlawed. Perhaps when enough fighters get seriously injured, or found to have CTE.
Sorry. I don't mean to sermonize. Thanks for the post. I think women's bare knuckle fighting will be more common, and I hope good vids are posted here.
