Boxing

Boxing is a combat sport in which two participants, typically wearing protective gloves and following a set of rules, engage in a contest of strength, speed, and strategy by throwing punches at each other. The primary objective is to score points by landing punches on the opponent while avoiding being hit. Matches take place in a square ring, and competitors are categorized by weight classes to ensure fair competition. Boxing has a rich history and is governed by various organizations that set regulations, including the number of rounds, duration of each round, and scoring systems. It can be practiced both as a competitive sport and as a form of fitness or self-defense.
