A Kind of Martial Sport Boxing
Boxing is no longer a violent sport for only the masculinity. In today’s health conscious world, boxing is defined as a new lifestyle for everyone — from professionals such as the fitness-conscious bankers and lawyers, to the cool trendy moms and social elites, to the body-conscious models and celebrities, to even the fun-loving, energetic teenagers!
Boxing, often called “the manly art of self-defense,” is a sport in which two competitors try to hit each other with their glove-encased fists while trying to avoid each other’s blows. The competition is divided into a specified number of rounds, usually 3 minutes long, with 1-minute rest periods between rounds. Although amateur boxing is widespread, professional boxing has flourished on an even grander scale since the early 18th century.
