Is boxing a true sport??
Boxing is for sure a real sport bro – Its all about skill and talent you need alot of skill to peform great at the highest level. You need to have great physical ability as well as mental ability. You need to have good stamina, awareness, reflexes, and patience, remember its technically not fighting, your opponent doesnt need to be knocked down for you to win the fight its about ability. You also need to understand your opponent, his weaknesses and his strengths so you can capitalise and exploit where he lacks. Also its also about conserving energy, and punching because you need a plan on how many punches to throw, when to throw, counter punching, and defensive strategies. So boxing is a sport, and also much more as it is a grand money phenomena, analysed and performed by the most intelligent and powerful people in the world. And personally for me its the greatest sport aswell!!
boxing is a very dangerous sport. a boxer focuses his punches on only the front of his opponent and that is where all his power is going. 45 minutes of getting hit in those areas over and over again is not conductive to good health. how ever the ability to evade or block most of those punches and prevent head and body trauma is not easy and they can end a fighters career very quick. more people have suffered brain damage or death in boxing than any other sport that i know of. but i would still box knowing all that as it is the greatest one on one sport i know.
