Do you have any proof for this?
There's emotional damage when people lose.
Who cares if people are being hurt.
lmao sure dude sitting around and pressing buttons really helps deal with aggression.
Stop talking shit about things you don't understand.
You just keep making a fool of yourself. Nobody cares about your obscure and nonsensical world view and nobody lives by it. Those of us in the real world understand there has to be a certain level of violence, and allowing it as a sport where it can be controlled is the best way to deal with that problem.

Everyone hates boxing, just not for the reasons you do. It's a boring as HECK sport and they smack each other with pillows. 10 ounce gloves are super soft and easy to hide behind.
That, and much like the NFL, once people found out that "hey maybe getting hit in the head so much isn't a good idea" correlates with concussions, the sport rapidly fell off (you're seeing the NFL deal with it as well, as well as players actually retiring at younger ages so they don't go brain dead by age 45).

Yeah, 'cause they should be fighting with metal boxes around their hands so that when someone gets punched their brain shatters and then they get knocked out because that's how conussions work.
Everyone knows that the harder you punch, the easier the brain breaks.
Plus, because they're so hard they increase the risk of cutting your opponent, which not only increases the chance of a match being called off, but it makes for a more gorey and fun sport.
That's a good thing. It's bad to think that's a bad thing

It's nowhere near the UFC gloves. It's a weird weight thing Las Vegas has with its rules. Thing about boxing is it's just a bunch of archaic bullshit that got left in the past and has been a very boring sport since Tyson retired. Tyson even told young aspiring athletes to go to MMA because that's where the future is at. Not that you care.Anyway, reason it's declining is because of what I mentioned earlier, and just as many people, if not more, find the sport repulsive.
fair enough, but there are still better reasons to hate boxing than that
