To back up Highlander's point - just over a year ago, Highlander put on a show with 5 New Zealand Titles and a South Pacific Title at stake. There were 5 mens fights and 1 women's fight. The women's fight got fight of the night because it was the best fight to watch - I know this as being 100% true because I was one of the women fighting.

Also, you mention that it's hard for guys to watch their girlfriends, etc get bashed around - but I watched my boyfriend get knocked out in the ring - do you not think that was just as hard to watch?

I am the only female fighter in our gym and regularly train with the guys on the same level as them. I can punch and kick harder than most of them because I have better technique than them, and they know that if they hold back on me then I'll take advantage of that weakness in them and hit them.

Thai boxing / Kickboxing is a male dominated sport and females coming into the sport have to realise that but it they are prepared to train as hard, if not harder sometimes, then why shouldn't they have the same opportunities too. There is only a small proportion of female fighters compared to men, but they are tough girls and deserve to be treated on the same level playing field.
