Or why two men also.

I agree with this fully. I have no desire to watch or take part in fighting of any kind. Still, everyone to their own.

I echo all the previous comments. If two people, regardless of gender, want to make sport of pummeling each other, so be it. I've never been interested in being a participant or a spectator in such matches.

I agreed with you. Making a few bucks by hurting other and yourself, not a sport to me.

Your probably right. Money can make people do some pretty strange things.

Boxing is kind of boring. My parents watched it on HBO back in the day. MMA is more entertaining because there is more involved, but I still overall find sports of hitting someone else to be strange lol I wouldn't do it ever.

Kickboxing is an exercise class as well... lol I would probably hurt my back doing it.

I find it appalling when magazines suggest boxing as a good exercise routine: seriously. I have actually read magazine articles suggesting it. I THINK NOT. Having my face bashed in doesn't seem like an exercise routine I'd want to to. It is almost comical.

That little element does seem to get overlooked.

It would be a good incentive to train hard and be better than your opponent though

Most kickboxing classes for exercise just have you kicking a punching bag, no sparring lol
