Boxing

Boxing is a combat sport in which two participants, typically wearing gloves and protective gear, engage in a contest of strength, speed, reflexes, and strategy by throwing punches at each other within a designated area known as a ring. The objective is to score points by landing punches on the opponent’s body or head while avoiding being hit. Boxing matches are usually divided into multiple rounds, and the winner can be determined by judges’ scores, technical knockout (TKO), or knockout (KO). The sport has a rich history and is governed by specific rules and regulations that vary by location and organization. It emphasizes skill, discipline, and physical fitness, and has various styles and techniques, including jabs, hooks, and uppercuts.
