Is boxing a true sport??
its a true sport alrite and the 1st sport oldest sport and the toughest sport as u f c you get chances to rest not in boxing there a skill that makes it a sport hit and not be hit its as safe as it ever has been and going to be… motosports skiing horse racing kick boxing have more deaths than boxing. so its safe as football you see more plays hurt as most in boxing is cuts but they dont hurt the can deal with 90% of cuts as football you will not finish the game when you legs wraped around your neck.
Boxing is a true sport. It is one-on-one with no teammates to help you or to hide behind. About being dangerous, of course it is. But most sports are – football has serious injuries and a number of players suffering from brain damage or paralysis, baseball has instances where people can get hit with a 90mph fastball, hockey has players with more concussions than teeth, and even soccer has many instances of brain damage because of the threat of getting kicked in the head if you fall and running up to bounce a ball off of your head. I have boxed for several years. I also coach the sport and I am a boxing journalist (writer and radio show co host). If you want, please contact me and I will be happy to be interviewed for your project.
Boxing is without question a true sport. Boxers are in incredible shape if you want to experiment with that try staying on your toes for 3 minutes while throwing punches. You will without question be very tired, and you don’t even have to avoid being punched. Boxing has at least as much if not more strategy than any sport so it is truly both a mental as well as physical.
boxing is a real sport, and its been around longer than football, basketball and even baseball…..boxers are some of the best conditioned athletes in the world, and while it is a sport you can get injured doing, many top rated fighters have careers that span 20 or so years, which is unheard of in sports like football and basketball. boxing is also always tweaking its rules to improve safety……boxing as the united stated knows it became a mainstream sport in the 1800’s, as bare knuckled competition, and used to be much bigger, believe it or not before TV. today it has taken a back seat to the other sports for various reasons.
