Boxing

Boxing is a combat sport in which two participants, typically wearing gloves, engage in a contest of strength, speed, reflexes, stamina, and strategy. The objective is to score points by landing punches on the opponent while avoiding being hit. Matches are usually held in a square ring and are divided into rounds. Points are scored based on the effectiveness and accuracy of strikes, and knockouts can end a match if one fighter is unable to continue. Boxing has various weight classes, and it may be governed by different organizations that set specific rules and regulations. It is also recognized for its rich history and cultural significance, often regarded as both a professional sport and a form of self-defense.
