Answer:

Explanation:

The above statement, however, is excessively paternalistic. Boxing is indeed risky, but the risks are perhaps comparable to other activities and sports. Fighting is certainly tolerated in ice hockey – in which a specific player, “the goon”, is encouraged to be aggressive. And as Mario Mendez has written in the International Journal of Psychiatry in Medicine, “in boxing . . . there is a smaller risk of fatal head injuries than in horse racing, sky diving, mountaineering, motorcycle racing, and even [American] football”.

With regards to non-fatal injuries, boxing was the first sport where chronic traumatic encephalopathy was noticed in former competitors. This is a progressive and degenerative condition caused by repeated head injuries; it presents with neurological symptoms such as memory loss and mood swings, eventually leading to dementia. But we now know that a wide range of contact sports result in head injuries frequent or severe enough to cause the condition:  American football, rugby, ice hockey and  professional wrestling (to name a few) are all linked to it, with a study of 2010 showing that school-aged American football players had “measurable neurocognitive and neurophysiologic deficits”, despite never having been concussed.

Answer: Sometime it becomes brutal by some players but its a strategic game

Explanation:Boxing does not include only to hit one another it includes your body coordination, your active reflex actions, your focus while in such pressure,and also it makes you self confident so according to my opinion its a good game but it all depends on you that ypu don't get your strength over your head, and not to break rules, so overall this game is good for youth to get active brain and body with patience, concentration and many other qualities,,,,and yes at last its not wrong to use your strength to stop wrong ones
