A lot of women, nowadays, are opting for boxing classes to fulfill their desire to get stronger. Now there are many drills that any trainee would follow, but some female boxers love trying out unconventional methods to hone their skills for the better. Such a method was utilized by a relatively new female boxer, who tried sparring against a male boxer. The male boxer had better movements and caught the female every time she dropped her guard, but that didn’t seem to have fazed her even for a bit.
She kept on coming and showcased a true sense of sportsmanship. Now this method of improvement isn’t that bizarre, as many female boxers like Claressa Shields and Shadasia Green have confessed to fighting against male boxers during their training. So much so that recently, Shields even called out Jake Paul for a fight. Anyway, the video of this sparring session went viral instantly, and the fans had some wild reactions.
