Women boxers kiss at stare down, someone in PR likely gets a raise
Christina Hammer kisses Mikaela Lauren before WBF match in Dresden

When two beautiful women who also happen to be badass athletes kiss in public, we can only think one thing: publicity stunt. And, boy, has it worked. Of course, no one can say for sure that the quick kiss earlier today between WBF World Middleweight Christina Hammer and opponent Mikaela Lauren was staged, but the incident has caused an eruption of tweets and Inteet searches in the hours since.

The boxers, who smooched during the stare-down at their weigh-in, will face off tonight in Dresden, Germany, where Hammer will attempt to defend her title. [Source]
