By Gerardo Granados: Boxing is a sport that holds a large tradition and history, according to the history experts boxing was invented by the Greeks, in the antique Olympic Games boxers squared off against each other to find out who was the best man.
Boxing became popular since his origin and spread worldwide, it took time but actually boxing is the most popular contact sport in the planet. The UFC and MMA are also great contact sports to watch and to practice, and no one can deny that they were born as an alternative for most boxing fans, and also the UFC and MMA have been very influenced by boxing; they do apply boxing techniques during their combats don’t they?
The promotion, TV broadcast and promoters of this new sports have its origins in boxing, don’t deny it, it cant be the other way around, boxing was the first major contact sport in the history of mankind and will keep that way because its in our nature to fight and dominate.
You don’t have to be a boxing expert to enjoy boxing, it won’t matter if you don’t know what is a jab or an uppercut, or if you are confused about in which side of the body the liver its located, footwork?
Majority draw? The best of all is that boxing its very simple, you have two boxers that step into the ring to find out who is the best, and they will fight to find out who is. Of course there are a lot of technical aspects, training, skills, guts, heart and blood involved in boxing; but even if you are not a boxing fan you will enjoy to watch the fight as much as an expert or as an average boxing fan. For me its even fun to watch the two new guys in the gym when both step in to the ring for the first time to face each other.
Also if you want to be in an excellent physical condition you better sign for boxing lessons, besides if by any circumstances you get into a brawl you will have an advantage.
Boxers aren’t all the same; there are different styles for the different preferences of boxing fans. Some prefer pure boxers, the ones that move a lot, with great defense, skilled with fast hands and amazing footwork, accurate and tactical, or the ones that can outpoint his rival countering him to win a fight; others prefer brawlers, the ones that comes after his rival swallowing punches with a steel chin, power punchers with an average technique but with a heart bigger than his chest; and there are the mix of all, there are the ones that have something special, not only physically they also have charisma and a magnetic personality.
Actually boxing have some issues to deal with, but they aren’t that hard to be fixed. And as long as there is testosterone inside your body, you always will find attractive to watch a fight, a boxing fight that is.
