Boxing is a combat sport. In both amateur and professional versions, the fighters wear padded gloves, attacking and defending only with fists. Each bout generally lasts for three minutes and the winner is the one who lands the most punches or knocks out his opponent. Boxing is also called Pugilism and prizefighting.
It is a very good way of getting fit its not just what people assume beating the hell out of each other is a disciplined sport and a good cardio vascular work out. |
