Boxing is a great sport, and I'll tell you why. All other sports use a ball or a racket or a club as a metaphor for imposing one person's will on another. Boxing is literally imposing your will on another, thus fascinating.

However, professional boxing has been done in by five things.

1. Greedy promoters.
2. Corruption-Doesn't matter if it's real or not, it's the perception.
3. Too many organizations.
4. A sport like boxing is made compelling by personalities. Marketing and sharing boxer's stories is a thing of the past.
5. Lack of a compelling heavyweight class for a long long long time.

I must agree to DISAGREE ... Ice Hockey is the most exciting. quickest, most physical, talent driven, decision making on the fly, artistic TEAM game there is . complete STOP

Boxing kept me out off the streets and taught me respect for myself and others,so for that alone I recommend it.

Boxing is for wimps. Real men play Kabbadi.

I make boxes all day long, but I wouldn't necessarily call it a sport

Then real men must be retards.

My mommy says im special

I grew up down the road from Sugar Ray Leonard. Those days of Sugar Ray, Tommy Hearns, Marvin Hagler, Wilfred Benitez, Aaron Pryor, Alexis Arguello...oh, I almost forgot "No Mas" Duran. What an era. Nothing like that now.

i prefer Tennis or Mma
