She had everything to lose in that match. Literally spoke from thousands of women. What a legend!
Yeah he looks like the type of person to call women weak then go back to live with his mother for another 20 years
To the incels, this isn’t about women being physically stronger than men. It’s about women rising against hateful people and proving their competence in any field. Don’t worry, a woman being an incredible athlete doesn’t make you less of a man, but trying to destroy their accomplishments makes you less of a human being. (Edit: the hateful comments are definitely going to have terrible marriages in the future)
This did NOT reach the right audience 😭😭😭
FYI this guy got caught betting against himself in this match btw
The rage baiting comments are unreal. Congrats to Billie Jean King. She is still alive and is 82
All the sexist comments were likely reported or deleted Edit: people are saying there never were any sexist comments and people are just fighting invisible problems but .... If you read some of the replys under this .... Yo I def see some sexism 😭💔 Edit 2: I just recently reported a nasty comment somewhere else and it disappeared from my sight, maybe it's just from my view but idk bro I'm not a YouTube employee
Man who tf is hating? Everyone be talking about people hating but there’s literally nobody hating
He was a gambler and bet against himself. No joke
Can we just imagine the absolute crushing pressure that was on that woman and athlete? And she crushed it! What an absolute f*cking legend!
Cue the incels in the comments frothing at the mouth 😂
as a men myself i liked that he lost
the amount of hate comments < the amount of people replying to the hate comments
A man in my Country literally Said any man can Beat a female Boxer Champion and got beaten easily
Wtf r these comments? Did I accidently teleport to 60s low IQ era?
It was never man vs woman, always man AND woman. Sexism is not only illogical, but also extremely wrong.
Being sexist at this age is insane
Bro thought he's andrew tate
Speaking for all men here, that guy deserved that generational humbling.
Dude got his money, spectators got what they were looking for, girl got her inspiring story. Everyone wins.
