What I Think of Boxing as a Sport

Boxing is a popular sport. Newspapers, magazines and sports programmes on TV frequently cover boxing matches．It could be the toughest of all sports to survive．It takes boxers hours in the gym and years to develop the specific characteristics needed to be a great boxer．____【1】____

It seems to me that some people, especially men, find it appealing because it is an aggressive sport．When they watch a boxing match, they can identify with the winning boxer．This gives them the feeling of being a winner themselves．____【2】____ They do that because the boxer comes from their own country, and if “their” boxer loses, they often feel as if they have lost a fight themselves．It is a fact that many people have feelings of aggression from time to time, but they cannot show their aggression in their everyday lives．Watching a boxing match gives them a way of expressing it．

____【3】____ Although boxers wear gloves during the fights, and amateur boxers even have to wear helmets, a kind of strong hard hat, there have frequently been accidents in both professional and amateur boxing, sometimes with dramatic consequences．Boxers have suffered from head injuries, and, occasionally, fighters have even been killed as a result of being knocked out in the ring．___【4】____ They are usually in the form of serious brain damage, even if a boxer has never been knocked out．

To conclude, I am personally not at all in favor of aggressive sports like boxing．____【5】___ We can celebrate more men and women from non-aggressive sports as our heroes in our society．I believe that the world is aggressive enough already! Of course, people like competitive sports, and so do I, but I think that hitting other people in an aggressive way is not something that should be regarded as a sport．

A．However, boxing can be a very dangerous sport．

B．Sometimes fans are rooting for a particular boxer．

C．In boxing, fighters are required to hit a moving target．

D．Many fans are drawn to the sport because they love the competition．

E．Perhaps that is the reason why successful boxers are treated as big heroes．

F．I think it would be better if less time was given to aggressive sports on TV．

G．Besides, studies have shown that there are often long-term effects of boxing．
