One of the stories of the year in professional boxing has been the rise of the women in the sport. Finally, after years of being ignored, underpaid, under-promoted and added to cards as little more than eye candy for the male-dominated audience, the powers-that-be in the sport have finally awakened to the fact that A) women can fight and B) there is a large potential audience for it.

It hasn't moved as fast as it should have, and it's way past time, but women are finally being promoted and recognized for their boxing abilities.Seniesa Estrada, one of the pound-for-pound best in the world, hasn't fought since stopping Maria Micheo Santizo on Dec. 18 in San Antonio, Texas, in the fourth round of a bout for the WBA strawweight title. Estrada dropped Micheo Santizo twice in that bout, but hasn't fought since.

She'd been one of the most exciting fighters in the sport and had the attitude that so many of her peers do in that she was not only willing, but seeking to fight the best. Her best weight is still 105 pounds but she'll fight at 108, and even at 112, to make a big bout. When she steps into the ring, it will be 11 months or, as she's quick to point out, 328 days since she last fought.
