Keith sent me a great series of woman boxers from Mexico. See all pictures Women in Glove in the 591 Gallery.
I suggest that you have a look at Keith's homepage too. There are many fine photographs to explore.

Quote: "Look at those eyes!" breathed Dean. They were like the eyes of the Virgin Mother when she was a child. We saw in them the tender and forgiving gaze of Jesus. And they stared unflinchingly into ours. We rubbed our nervous blue eyes and looked again. Still they penetrated us with sorrowful and hypnotic gleam.
---Jack Kerouac, "On the Road"
A favourite photograph: Eugene Atget, "La Villette, Prostitute Paris, 1921."

Keith adds that the title "Women in Glove" is
