Boxing

Boxing is a combat sport in which two participants, typically wearing protective gloves, engage in a contest of strength, speed, and strategy. The objective is to score points by landing punches on the opponent while avoiding being hit. Boxing matches are held in a boxing ring, and competition is divided into rounds, with each round lasting a defined duration. Scoring can be based on the number and quality of punches landed, and matches can be won by knockout, technical knockout, or points awarded by judges. The sport has a rich history and is regulated by various governing bodies that establish rules, weight classes, and safety measures to ensure the well-being of the fighters.
