Boxer Kaye Scott: making history and challenging stereotypes about what a boxer "should" look like
Manage episode 331290132 series 2943119
"You should become a model". It's a comment Kaye Scott has heard more than once throughout her amateur boxing career. But Kaye proved the doubters wrong by competing in the 2014 & 2018 Commonwealth Games, winning a silver medal at the 2016 Women's World Championships and moving from the amateurs to the pros this year.
Kaye sits down with host Sam Squiers to share about:
- How she went from doing boxercise at her local gym to competing on the world stage
- Being part of the first women's fight after female boxing was decriminalised in NSW in 2009
- Why men are challenged by women's boxing and how she responds to their comments
- The Amateur Boxing Associations' rule to mandate all female boxers to wear skirts (and then being told that she was distracting judges by wearing a skirt)
- Competing at the 2014 & 2018 Commonwealth Games and preparing the upcoming games in Birmingham
- The decision to go pro
- And why she hates people commenting on her age
