Am I a horrible man for wondering what this chick looks like?? Did you get your hormones up thinking of looking at a dead, bloodied, bruised carcass?

....I like football, but the object is to score a touchdown; I like racing, but the object is to cross the finish line first.
In boxing, the object is to deliver a negative medical condition to your opponent.

Don't some theorize the reason Mohammad Ali has Parkinson's Disease is a result of boxing?

My grandfather was a professional boxer. I can't stand the sight of women boxing though.

I take it that's from the Eastwood movie, "Million Dollar Baby' (or something like that).

Boxing: The purest of all sports.
To: Dean Baker
Sorry, but I fail to see the "purity" in beating someone to a pulp for any reason other than to protect yourself or someone else.
Agility, strength, stamina, dexterity - any and all of these can be competitively measured WITHOUT anyone being physically beaten.
