    I played rugby at the college and club levels in the 90s. In college occasionally we'd have coed practices with the women's team. They gave no quarter! It made no difference that we were bigger men. Those women brought the boom. I'm soooooo proud as an American to watch them succeed but watching the women's sport grow all over is a wonderful thing.

    Yes, love seeing the powerful women being themselves, both girly girl and tough.

    I hope she didn’t hurt that reporter. If that were me I probably would have had something broken! 😂 Go, Ilona!! USA USA

    As the father of a burly girl, I wish there were many more role models like this!

    Gentlemen, this is the kind of woman you want bearing your sons.
  • @justincoleman7856
    The lady interviewing the athlete calls herself 'old' because she would rather be a 'journalist' than an actual athlete. Never EVER call yourself old if you're more than capable of being a journalist. ALWAYS be open minded to new opportunities.

    I’m a 6’1 210 pound man that’s decently athletic. If I saw Ilona Maher in the gap I’m running the other way as fast as I can. But if I saw her at a restaurant I’m probably gonna ask for her number.

    Athletic women have always been attractive , the little men have just been given audience. She is beautiful inside and out. Actually, she is way hot on the outside.
