Descrizione:The aim of this article is to summarize the literature on the sporting body in the field of Anthropology, with special regard on the incursion of women in the traditionally “masculine” combat sports such as boxing.

The first two sections of our review of literature shall tackle this subject from an exterior perspective by exposing the various mechanisms regulating bodies in sports and by showing in which forms the sporting body is represented and depicted within a capitalist society.
