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.

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

John 1965, Gladiators were forced. Boxers are not. It’s their choice although poor choice I would say.

For a sport that can KILL or parallel an opponent it's understandable why the sport would banned in other countries

I agree that people have a choice of what to do with their own bodies as long as they understand the consequences. I do worry that this craze of teens boxing without proper instruction is dangerous. I don't think young teens REALLY understand the hazards of boxing.
