When talking about one those Sports I detest so much, boxing is one of them. I don't just like the fact that it's just too brutal that I don't see any fun in it

Seeing how boxer Patrick Day died four days later after suffering a brain injury in a fight against Charles Cornwell made me hate boxing more. The 27-year-old boxer was put into coma on Saturday after he was knocked out in the 10th round of his super welterweight bout in Chicago.

This is the fourth boxer to die within a space of four months this year alone and I always wonder how people derived watching people who don't have outstanding issues, fighting bloodily.

It's about that time boxing regulating bodies make more adjustments or implement measures to correct this kind of sad scenarios. Maybe every wrestler both lightweight and heavyweight should always helmet to prevent this kind of tragedy

I agree on how this sport is dangerous but I think I dislike the idea that this sport must be stopped. Boxing is a popular type of combat existing in history and watching the best fighters on television somehow gives a hope that fighting is not just about size and strength but most importantly the skill.

How are you doing buddy?

I'm doing very good man!

I'm checking on you to see how you are doing. You might have not move on with Tammy Abraham's choice for england :(

So sad 😭 I mean it!

This is tragic. Most sports have their own risk you know, but at different levels and that of boxing seem to be extreme.

Sometimes these boxers go into games with so much beef between them and in some cases, transfer alot of aggression on their opponents which could turn out deadly.

I agree with you on regulations and also safer approach on how a match is conducted as well as how a winner is decided afterwards by their governing bodies.
