My favorite club, the Columbia Platinum Plus, 5 weeks ago started boxing matches between dancers. I heard about this from pop last week and it is mentioned in the latest club review. Wednesday nights at 1000PM. No additional cover charge. In fact the latest review says admission is free during the matches. My birthday next month falls on a Wednesday. I think I will stay late to check it out. What other gimmicks are clubs using?

    Are actual dancers doing the boxing? It doesn't really sound that sexy but I guess you have to see it to know it. The sister club in Greenville had a boxing ring still up in the club one weekend but I didn't know why.

    Dreamgirls in Columbus recently installed a shower area up on their main stage. I have yet to see it used. They also advertised chocolate pudding women wrestling but I did not stay to watch it. If I was there during a boxing match I would be busy getting dances instead of watching it. I bet the security staff will be busy watching and supervising the boxing than monitoring the dance area.

    I went this Wednesday. Free cover when I got in at 9:55. They do $2 cuervo shots during the bouts. The girls fighting are actual strippers at the club - the two fights they had Wednesday had 3 girls I've seen working there regularly (didn't know who the 4th girl was but she was probably regular too). It's three rounds of action. Before the fight, the DJ comes on stage and "auctions" off being the corner person for each girl. The first fighter comes out and he starts a bidding process for the customers - if you win you stand in their corner, give pointers between rounds and "rub them down" (I didn't see any rubdowns). Seems like a huge waste to me. After the auction, they do a 2for1 in the club while they get everything ready for the fight. After the 2for1 is over, the girls do the three rounds. If there's no KO, audience cheers for who they decide is the winner. Once it's done, another 2for1 and that's the end of foxy boxing. It's interesting, everyone stops doing everything and watches the fights - the floor guys, bartenders, dancers, etc. It's only 3 rounds so it lasts not longer than 10 minutes start to finish with the breaks between rounds.

    uscue13, There must be a monetary incentive for the girls to do this. Maybe you or pop can find out what it is and let us know.

    The girls get to keep all the "auction" money.

    Foxy boxing has been going on in many Detroit clubs for about six months. Seems like they all read the same trade mags for the latest gimmicks. The boxing doesn't move me. Need a better gimmick.

    Super, which clubs are doing it? I saw La Chambre had a flier for it. I'm mildly interested (like I'm mildly interested in midget tossing, monster trucks or anything else hillybilly) and would like to take in an event.

    Foxy boxing From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Foxy boxing is a sports entertainment which involves two or more women's boxing (or pretending to do so) in a sexualized context as a form of erotic entertainment. The participants are typically dressed in revealing clothing such as bikinis or skintight leotards, while the actual fight usually focuses on the beauty of the combatants rather than fighting skills. In Media and Popular Culture The sport is frequently referenced in popular culture: Barney Stinson from the hit TV-show How I Met Your Mother is very fond of the sport. Homer Simpson on The Simpsons mentioned it twice: On the season six episode "Lisa on Ice", he tells Lisa that "if the Bible has taught us anything--and it hasn't--is that girls should stick to girls sports, such as hot-oil wrestling, foxy boxing, and such and such." Later, on the season 12 episode "Tennis the Menace", Homer builds a tennis court, only to learn that tennis is not the same as foxy boxing (or as he calls it, "the sport where the chicks wail on each other"). The King of the Hill episode "Boxing Luanne" centered on Luanne Platter becoming a foxy boxer for Buck Strickland. On 30 Rock, Tracy Jordan says, "I love foxy boxing! It combines my two favorite things: boxing, and referees." Miami Vice season one episode 9 "Glades" contains a scene of two women foxy boxing approximately 9 minutes into the episode. The owner of the club promoting the event even refers directly to the sport stating, "Foxy Boxing is what's in now" In the final episode of the short-lived TV Series Freaks and Geeks, Seth Rogen's character Ken is thrown out of a disco club for causing a scene and making fun of disco music. As he's being escorted from the building, the bouncer at the disco club tells him not to worry too much because the disco will be shut down the following week in favor of foxy boxing.
