When is wearing a cup in MMA more important? When fighting a guy or a girl?

Should I wear a cup when fighting a guy or a girl? Who’s more likely to hit me below the belt?

Guy or girl wear a cup in MMA every time. Low blows happen by accident an on purpose. Better to be safe than sorry. A cup will no prevent all of the pain but will protect you from damage. There is a reason it’s required in the rules of the sport.

I don't recall a female fight being stopped due to a low blow
