Boxing

Boxing is a combat sport in which two participants, usually wearing protective gloves and other gear, face off in a ring. The objective of boxing is to score points by landing punches on the opponent while avoiding being hit. Matches are typically divided into rounds, with a referee overseeing the contest to enforce the rules and ensure the safety of the boxers. Scoring can be based on the number of successful punches landed, the control of the match, and overall performance. Boxing has a rich history and is governed by various organizations that establish rules, weight classes, and championship titles. The sport emphasizes physical fitness, strategy, and skill, combining techniques such as footwork, head movement, and various punching styles.
