I heard Frank Warren talking about this on the radio the other day, and he said that head guards were only introduced for use during training because they actually add to the impact of a punch and shouldnt be used in a live fight. I'm all for womens boxing, in fact they should start a class in Calis, might put these perverts off grabbing people off the streets to rob and assault them. Womems boxing produces a higher technical ability than mens, apparently...which goes to prove that us women like to do things properly than just punching the living daylights out of each other! lol...
