Female Fighter Of The Year 2010: Kaliesha West

RIGHT ON! Aight Now! TSSU is giving the ladies da mad luv and much equality. A lot of the times the women are doing their thing in dat squared jungle while the guys are bullshyting. Just imagine! How many boring lady bouts you have seen lately? That is what I thought! You have not. Because you are honest or a punk that does not watch and think that women shouldn't be into da paid pugilism biz. Well! They are here now! Suck it up, accept it and move on! And they got the skills, so it is time to pay them phat, so that they can pay their bills. Let "The million-dollar baby" become a reality. My prediction is K "Skills, Skills da whole world" -- I mean K "Wild, Wild" -- West will be among the first ladies to get paid a million dollar for a bout. Time to hit da pit! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ! Holla!

nice! where's eggs? the ladies and the lighter weight class of men is where it's at. go west! go julaton!

If the women's fighter of the year falls in the forrest and no one has ever seen it, does it matter? Take up tennis sweetie. My girl Maria is the highest paid female athlete of all time and she is only 23. Come home Eggman!

Womens' boxing is like a circus freak show. You make look out of curiosity for a short time, but most people will quickly become bored, (even women) and watch something more legit. They have every right to fight eachother and set it up in the pros if they want, but the public voices their opinion no matter how much this liberal nonsense is shoved down peoples' throats and MAJORITY rules. People rather see men in hand to hand combat and it shows by a HUGE margin. So go ahead, show your little women's boxing. (Aww, how cute.) The ratings and pay while compared to the men's combat just doesn't lie and I bet it'll hardly ever change much. People like watching woman in MOST sports such as tennis, golf, swimming or basketball, but if you want to have your pretty little face smashed in, don't expect a VAST MAJORITY to stomach that. The numbers in ratings and pay don't lie. Sorry you politically correct, Liberal agenda, smothering a-holes. I GUARANTEE MANY women will even laugh at this nonsense, much less, the men. It's a joke to almost everyone and last I checked, besides West, and a few other decent looking women in this, most of them look like roided up shemales anyway.... and they expect men to take this seriously? LOL!

Isaiah, I don't think striving for equality is a liberal agenda thing. The market can choose or ignore this side of the sport if they wish. And if you have offspring, girls, won't you want an equal playing field for them?

Wow! Americans are often late to the fight, victory and/or party. It must be an innately case of Metathesiophobia. Women boxing is big time and big money in all of Europe, most of Asia, Australia, South America, Latin America and South Africa. Women boxing will even be in the Oympic Games next year. Boxing was still illegal in some states of the United States as late as the 1950s. And even between different races, it was not premitted. [And the men use to even be the ring girls, and some scary-looking, UGLY ONES before they turned it over to the gorgeous ladies.] I will give Golden Boy Productions BIG credit for being a pioneer for the game and putting K West on a major card. Now in the wind, even Don King Productions are speeding to get on that equality train, and rumors are that he is getting ready to outdo Big Money O -- Oscar de la Hoya. In da game, we recently lost three of the GIANT FEMALES. They never boxed, but they were very essential. Like in the words of the late, great Godfather of Soul, singer James Brown, who use to be a "prize fighter," himself, "This is a man's world, but it will be nothin' without a woman or a girl." These wonderful ladies have ascended to heaven. Now it is only fitting that in their honor, GREAT respect and opportunities be given to female boxers 2011. Holla!

Radam,.. interesting history lesson,.. I googled your word and was mildy suprised to find the definition:Metathesiophobia (noun) - The persistent, abnormal, and unwarranted fear of change. Symptoms usually include shortness of breath, rapid breathing, sweating,.. **** I couldn't see myself leading my grand daughter to womens boxing,.. but I have one in particular who has the highest threshold for pain that I've seen on any human being,.. plus she's agressive and resorts to violence at the drop of a hat.. Yes we are working with her on that to teach her some socially acceptable options,.. but this girl is as natural a fighter as they come. If she happended to find her way to the sport on her own it's comforting to know that there's an official intrastructure that supports Womens Boxing on both a professional and amateur basis

Hey guys. I haven't had the opportunity to see Kaliesha West on TV or anything like that yet, but I hope there is a Kaliesha West-Ada Ace Velez rematch. I know the writer thinks different than what the judges did, but I remember reading about the match and that West felt Velez's experience when the two clashed. I'm just sayin' that West needs to put an actual L on the Ace. Anyway, I think that Holly Holm is clearly and without question the best fighter of 2010. You beat Ann Marie Saccurato (WBC Lightweight Champ) a SECOND time and that's quite an accomplishment. Also, the "bad girl" of boxing Melissa "Huracan" Hernandez (something of a protege to respected boxer Belinda "Brown Sugar" Laracuente) is rightfully being touted elsewhere and I agree as the most entertaining, as well as in my opine biggest-hearted boxers you're likely to find. She's accomplished a lot quite quickly since jumping in against the best of the pros after a notable amateur career (Huracan appears in the documentary about the Golden Gloves called The Life of Million Dollar Babies - I got a copy of the DVD from the director when it was still titled Golden Gloves). Not to go overboard, but even Ana Julaton's people I believe have referred to Ms. Hernandez as "Lady Camacho." Lindsay Garbatt (who actually decisioned and then had a draw with Hernandez) and big puncher Jeannine Garside have been doing impressive things that I've read about. Anyway, Kaliesha West does seem pretty cool. I hope to see Melinda Cooper. Avila's writing on her has piqued my interest. She's been boxing since a young girl, so her skills must indeed be quite amazing - hope she gets more exposure. And 2011 I guess Layla McCarter is returning to the ring. And good luck to Chevelle Hallback on her continued quest for an HBO or Showtime showcase! I'm glad TSS regularly gives the women some ink. It's where I learn a lot about who is who, and (belated) Happy New Year to everybody.

The Eggman has washed up on shore! What's up Pete? Where you been? Have you seen Robert Curtis, Salt Lover, or AFN? I'm getting a little worried about those mo fo's.

Hi Roast-man!! LOL Nah, I'm not sure where those guys are, hope they're doin' fine. I haven't watched much tennis lately but (I think she's finally retired now?), but I was really interested when Martina "The Swiss Miss" (LOL) Hingis had that cool comeback for awhile. I've liked players like Jennifer Capriati (who doesn't, right), just many of the players that have been around during the same period of time that Hingis was on the scene. I'll have to try to catch some women's tennis on TV in the future - not familiar with who the newer players are. I'm looking forward to the new season of Friday Night Fights - that's pretty much how I see any fights with livin' in the Midwest. I'm really not up to date on the current fighters in men's boxing outside of the names that get the press most, so I'm looking forward to who I might see on FNF. I'm still intrigued with, well, is David Haye (I think he will) gonna actually get in the ring with one of the brothers Klitschko. And is Donovan "Razor" Ruddock serious about a comeback? He looks great in that interview with Al Bernstein. Anyway, I know this particular thread is about the female fighters. I think Mia St. John deserves some mention for her involvement with Mental Health Awareness. I've never had boxing gloves on in my life, but as a boxing observer, St. John progressed into a solid fighter. I think she's retired from the ring now, but she's using the platform of her various successful pursuits and should be applauded for stepping up to do something really cool like this. I have a lot of respect for anyone that gets the message out. Ciao.

Yo Eggs, I'm glad you made it to the new site. We are still missing some key Regs but they will find us sooner on later. Hingis was a party girl. Her career was derailed by injury, the fact that she was to small to bang with the big babes who took over. There was a suspention for coke usage. She said she didnt do it. Sharapova is my girl. The backup Laker got nothin on me. Mia always gets my attention. Her heart is in the right place. I hope the Razor stays away. Peace out bro.
