Apart from being my strong opinion, a neuro-surgeon stated that " a sport where u go to damage another person's eyes or even parts of the brain thereby disturbing disturbing it rhythm shoudnt be an allowed sport", ....and have been thinking about this, but this man just put some icing on it.....so what your opinion on this

There is already a difference between the boxing sport (amateur boxing) and the boxing contest (light-heavyweight contest).

Have you seen Olympic boxing before? Then you'll know it's as technical as Judo or Taekwondo. . . The only issue it that boxers always want more money and they tend to graduate from amateur boxing into the contest strictly for financial reasons.

Floyd Mayweather Jnr. for instance, was an Olympic boxer before he went into boxing contest. Being an Olympic medalist unfortunately doesn't pay the bills. . .

if you think boxing isn't a sport then I wonder wht you'll think of wrestling? Remember the injuring that aaron ramsey had? I wonder the kinda punch that's worse as that injury....or 199x premier league game tht saw bursst leg turn into "c" shape from a challenge from two defenders, my point is every sport has hazards

Wrestling (WWE) is not a sport.... That's an acted show. Only the Olympic standard wrestling is a sport. Those ones are not allowed to use steroids like WWE wrestlers that pack up fake muscles...

It's a sport-entertainment, not a sport. It's just for entertainment. It is acted and the winner is already determined before a fight. You can't compare it to boxing where you take and throw real punches to the face and body...

Bros you just reminded me of Onazi's injury at the world cup. I was so sad about it... The french coach specifically instructed Matuidi to send Onazi out of the pitch since he was the only one truly holding the midfield.... while Mikel was busy running from leg.... like he already knew something could happen...
