A Dangerous Activity

            There are many dangerous activities that people engage in daily. Among what I think happens to be one of the most dangerous activities is the popular sport known as boxing.
             Watching two people box is pretty hard to stomach, yet fans from all over the world enjoy this sport and pay pretty high prices to see a major fight. Not only that, they also place high bets on an opponent as well.
             Although boxing is an exciting sport and pays good money, it also has its downfalls. People who box for a living risk their lives each time they step inside a ring.
             First of all, the sport is extremely violent. Opponents fighting against each other become overly excited and aggressive. As a result, with every punch that lands, blood surfaces and teeth are lost in the process.
             Secondly, boxing is too dangerous. From time to time, after receiving constant hits to various parts of the body, and over abuse of the body as well, bones become brittle and eventually break. Boxers suffer from a variety of permanent damages. Concussions are one of the common damages to the body. And there is also the possibility of brain damage or even worse, sudden death.
             I do not comprehend why people are such huge fans of this violent sport. What puzzles me the most is how people can engage in this dangerous sport. My best guess is that money and adrenalin are the result of one's love and involvement in this sport.
