Most exciting upcoming women’s bouts
February 26, 2018
     
   
   

(FEB 26)  Women’s boxing often doesn’t get the credit it deserves. It does not, unfortunately, get the best press and is often ignored or sidelined when compared to men's boxing. The majority of people couldn’t tell you more than maybe one or two women’s boxers, even those with a big interest in men's boxing. In contrast, mens boxing stars are lauded. They are brought onto chat shows, they are given awards and they are asked to speak at events. Their female counterparts, as in other sectors of life, have to achieve far more to get less recognition.

You only need to look at how much things go into hyperdrive in the sporting press when a fight between two men in announced. Just look at how many column inches has been given to Anthony Joshua’s upcoming fight with Joseph Parker in Cardiff. You are lucky if you get one betting preview for women’s boxing even if it is often easier and more profitable to bet on women’s boxing than men's.

There are so many great fights coming up in women’s boxing and it is a real shame that they won’t get the spotlight that they richly deserve. In order to try and help shine a light on these bouts, we thought we would explore some of the best fighters around in women’s boxing. These are the women you should be showing you men’s boxing fan friends who dismiss women’s boxing. These are women you should be watching on pay per view, the ones that should be your heros and the ones that are very important and exciting. So have your notebooks at the ready as we explore some of the best fighters in women’s boxing.

Aleksandra Magdziak
Born in Poland but now lives in the United States, she fought out an excellent match with Natasha Spence that ended in a draw and will see a rematch happening very soon. Magdziak is quick and clever, she is a boxer who can draw her opponents in before pouncing and making mincemeat out of them. She has won eighteen matches in her career establishing herself as one of the strongest and most exciting fighters in women’s boxing. At 37, she is coming towards the end of her career, but she still has enough left in the tank to get people excited and will relish trying to beat Spence when they meet.

Natasha Spence
It would be unfair to mention Magdziak without also considering her rival, Spence. The Canadian does not quite have the same sterling record as her opponent having only won eight fights, but she is five years her junior and will be hoping to beat Magdziak and then kick on to dominate the women’s super lightweight division. She is similar to her opponent, very quick, not that powerful, but with a boxing brain and a tactical nous that means that means her lack of power is not too big of a worry. Their bout is likely to be one of the best this year.

Nicola Adams
Only just really embarking on a professional career after retaining the Olympic title in Rio, which she first won in London 2012, Adams has only had three fights but has won them all comfortably, including inflicting the only defeat on Maryan Salazar, one of the best young fighters in women’s boxing. Adams is 35 so is unlikely to have too many fights left but she will continue to get into the ring with her fast and brave style. She is the star of British women’s boxing and a real darling of the press, it will be exciting to see who she fights next.

Anne Sophie Da Costa
Da Costa has a record that many women, and men, would envy, having picked up 24 wins in her 27 fights. That is a professional record that sets her apart and she has been a real pioneer in women’s boxing, fighting the good fight to get recognition and praise for her skill and ability. She is a light flyweight who hopes to continue boxing for a while, and with her skill and determination, it is hard to bet against her.
