Boxing

Boxing is a combat sport in which two individuals engage in fighting with their fists, typically while wearing gloves and following specific rules. Participants are trained to strike their opponent while aiming to avoid being hit themselves. Matches are usually held in a squared ring and are divided into rounds. The objective is to score points by landing punches on the opponent or to achieve a knockout, which occurs when one fighter is unable to continue after being struck. Boxing has various styles and techniques, including jabs, hooks, and uppercuts, and requires skills such as speed, strength, agility, and strategy. It is governed by regulatory bodies that establish rules, weight classes, and ensure the safety of the competitors. Boxing is both a competitive sport and a form of fitness training, often promoting discipline, physical conditioning, and self-defense skills.
