I understand all the difficult training behind it if you want to make it big, and that it's very technical and psychological... but I just can't stand watching two guys beating the crap out of each other.

Why put so much effort and money into something so useless and damaging?

Yeah but most of them are actually a game. Fighting isn't.

yeah but that's working from the assumption that it is just 2 guys punching the shit out of each other.

which at it's very base is true but again, at the base of football it's just 22 guys kicking a ball around a field...

there's alot of tactics and thought that goes into boxing. if you're any good that is anyways.

I know, that's what I acknowledged in my first post.

You don't lose as many brain cells and years of life expectancy playing football as you do boxing.
