Answer 1

I won't like sports so I can't say about sports

Answer 2

A lot of people believe sports such as boxing and wrestling represent the very worst of man kind and believe that such things are from the 'barbarian/gladiator' era thousands of years ago where people used to enjoy seeing bloodshed. The argument goes that we have come a long way from that time and we as humans should now live out a more 'peaceful' life with less violence in it.
While in theory this sounds good, human beings are made for competition and dominance. This is what drives us to live, work hard, and compete among ourselves.
Also unlike gladiator fights which were almost always fatal for at least one opponent, boxing and wrestling are by far, not lethal sports. There is competition of strength, competition and strategy while the sports are also highly regulated and not as 'wild' as people think.
Apart from medics who are present 24/7, all participants are trained in basics of how to 'blow a punch' but not kill someone. Killing is not the aim of such games!
