I suppose we all have the right to choose what we want to do with our lives, and we also have the right to deal with the consequences of that choice don't we?!

I never have understood the interest in watching two men try to beat each others' brains out.

EternalLord3002, why people arent forced to box its a choice and the people doing it know the risk. just cuz you dont like it doesn't mean it should be banned

alot of the countries mentioned still stone women in the streets.for Evan supposedly inappropriate behavior.and what about female circumcision??. Boxing when done with the Marcus of Queensbury rules is a noble sport...A good punch in the nose...stops alot of bad behavior quick.

EternalLord3002, soon, government sanctioned murder in the name of a perceived moral high ground is acceptable but consenting competition isn't? if u don't like it then don't be a boxer, people's freedoms are being eroded daily in the name of protecting us from ourselves.

Any doctor can tell you that a knockout punch is caused by one player causing brain damage to the other causing him/her to pass out. As that is the sole purpose of the sport, why call it a sport? How can you compare it to getting a ball in a hole, the basket, over the bar, across the line, or physical sports like swimming, running, etc. where everyone is just trying to do things better or faster, not trying to cause brain damage?

Summerside217, it beheads people only when they keep repeating silly mistakes like murder, robbery, harassment as all of this is Haram or forbidden in their religion

It makes little sense to ban a sport, no matter the danger. It's a choice, thankfully!

Dude, i watched a Dhar Mann video about a dad favoring his two sons over another just because they’re good at boxing…two of them died because of him, and only the middle one remained…

Depends on how it is handled - growing up my sibling's and I would fight and argue , so my dad started have us put on boxing gloves and Duke it out . It settled problems , no hard feeling's and no serious injuries
