This hasn’t been the first time women’s well-being and possibly their lives have been placed in danger in athletic fighting competitions and all in the name of transgender affirmation.

Two years ago, a female MMA contestant received serious head-injuries in a match against a transgender who was admitted into the women’s MMA division. It is a blessing that she wasn’t killed. If this persists, it may be time for women involved in both boxing and MMA to form their own independent women’s divisions for their own safety.
Granted that in sports such as this, there is always a chance of an athlete male or female, risking the possibility of serious injury or even death (death being rare) but those are risks that participants knowingly take, but allowing men claiming to be women to compete against female fighters exposes women involved in these kind of sports to unnecessary dangers.
