Boxing

Boxing is a combat sport in which two athletes engage in a contest of strength, speed, and strategy by throwing punches at each other while wearing gloves and adhering to specific rules. Typically conducted in a squared ring, boxing matches are judged based on a point system or by knockout. The sport has a long history, dating back to ancient civilizations, and involves various techniques, including footwork, defense, and offensive maneuvers. Boxers are categorized into weight classes to ensure fair competition, and matches can be amateur or professional, with varying levels of regulation and promotion. The primary objective is to score more points than the opponent or to incapacitate them, rendering them unable to continue the fight.
