Murder

<blockquote>Immoral. Ruthless. Tantamount to legalized murder.<br />n<br />n<br />n…..<br />n<br />n<br />nThe article — titled "The Immorality of Professional Boxing" — compared the sport to the bloody gladiator contests in ancient Rome. It also criticized the business of boxing as equally ruthless, with the fighter "only a machine to make money."</blockquote><br />n<br />nI've never been a big fan of Boxing so I would have to agree with the <a href="http://www.timesunion.com/AspStories/story.asp?storyID=408873&BCCode=BNSPORTS&newsdate=10/14/2005">article</a>. Watching two people beat the shit out of each other isn't my idea of fun.<br />n<br />n<blockquote>It also noted that fighters who don't die in the ring often suffer long-term physical and psychological injuries.</blockquote><br />n<br />nFind an old boxer and most of them have problems of some kind related to the "sport." I agree with this stance that it is wrong. But human nature being what it is nothing is going to change.<br />n<br />n<b>Man is the only one to whom the torture and death of his fellow creatures is amusing in itself.
