Boxing is a combat sport in which two participants, typically wearing protective gloves, engage in a contest of strength, speed, and strategy. The objective is to score points by landing punches on the opponent’s torso and head while avoiding being hit. Matches take place in a square ring, and bouts are divided into rounds. Boxers can win by knockout (where one opponent is unable to continue), by technical knockout (stopped by the referee), or by the judges’ scorecards if the match goes the full duration. The sport requires a combination of physical conditioning, agility, and tactical skill, and is governed by specific rules and regulations to ensure safety. Additionally, boxing has a rich history and is practiced both as a professional sport and as an amateur discipline, with various weight classes to ensure fair competition.
