Anyone else notice how strange it is that female fighters get a lot more respect from MMA fans than fans of any other sport?

Examples:

-Boxing fans don't care for female boxing.
-Golf fans don't care for womens golf.
-NBA fans HATE the WNBA.

That's true. I think it's because MMA fans appreciate the technical nature and skill of a lot of women's fights. Not sure, though. Just an idea.....

Just got the result of Carina Damm´s fight in FFF.

Carina defeated Sophie Bagherdai by submission (armbar) at 1:21 of the second round.

Congrats to Rox22 for her hard-fought win. Sounds like she used a lot of different things in her arsenal......
