WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT OF BOXING AS A SPORT

Boxing is a popular sport that many people seem to be fascinated by. Newspaper, magazines and sports programmes on TV frecuently cover boxing matches. Professional boxers earn a lot of money and successful boxers are treated as huge heroes. However I am personally not at all in favour of aggressive sports like boxing. I think it would be better if less time was given to aggressive sports on TV  and we celebrated more men and women from non-aggressive sports as heroes and heroines 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 is not something that should be regarded as a sport.
