Boxing

Boxing is a combat sport in which two fighters face each other in a ring and use their fists to strike one another while wearing gloves. The primary objective is to score points by landing punches on the opponent or to achieve a knockout, where one fighter is unable to continue the match. Boxing matches are typically divided into rounds, with the scores from judges determining the winner, unless a knockout occurs. The sport has a rich history and can be organized at amateur and professional levels, governed by a set of rules that dictate the conduct of the match, including weight classes, permissible strikes, and safety regulations. Boxing is recognized for its physical and mental demands, requiring skills such as speed, strength, agility, and strategy.
