They recently hosted an all-women\u2019s card at Madison Square Garden, headlined by <a href=\"https:\/\/bigfightweekend.com\/recaps\/amanda-serrano-vs-katie-taylor-3\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano 3<\/a>.

Groves made it clear he sees Dubois as the future of female boxing:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe future of female boxing, for me, is Caroline Dubois, so far, so good in her career. Her brother\u2019s a former heavyweight champion, so you know, success runs in the family. Got the lineage, the bloodline. There\u2019s gonna be loads coming through. You know, when they first started, everyone was excited, but there wasn\u2019t enough competition. But now, certainly in Britain, there\u2019s a lot of talented females coming through.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Katie Taylor and the Future of Female Boxing<\/p>\n<p>Groves also praised the impact of Katie Taylor, calling her a pioneer for the sport.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cObviously you\u2019ve got your Shield and Taylor, but I\u2019m trying to not be so obvious. Nah, I can\u2019t think of anyone to top Katie Taylor. She was an iconic, big champion and a pioneer for females, certainly this side of the pond. Yeah, Katie Taylor. There\u2019s gonna be loads coming through. It feels like there\u2019s opposition for the females. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know, when they first started breaking from getting the TV slots, let\u2019s be honest, it was COVID times and female boxing was cheaper than male boxers. So they were getting the TV slots for a new audience. Everyone was excited, but there wasn\u2019t enough competition, so they were just really skillful ladies against someone like Browe from Guadalajara. But now, certainly in Britain, there\u2019s a lot of talented females coming through.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Women\u2019s boxing experienced a significant boost during the COVID-19 pandemic, with numerous TV cards, leaving many excited about&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":116746,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[447],"tags":[703,49,48,82],"class_list":["post-116745","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116745","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=116745"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116745\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/116746"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=116745"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=116745"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=116745"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
