Boxing takes more mental and physical dexterity than you can imagine. Following up on the previous comment. The discipline and commitment it takes to box is amazing. And it does give kids another avenue to persue instead of gangs and drugs or violence.
It is not just "two idiots" beating each other. The avenue here is to not teach kids to hurt one another. But, to repsect one another. But, as we can see in your rebuttles, that is a something that you lack an understanding in.
Where as, submerging oneself underwater with an oxygen tank attached to their back is not considered a sport in my book.
