Decades ago there was a tepid push to ban boxing matches in the hopes of elevating society.

Instead, our society has become increasingly slovenly, coarse, and violent.

Boxing hasn’t gone away, and now even more brutal forms of physical combat are considered “entertainment”.

Have you seen women's MMA? Our society has found degraded levels far below even "rock bottom."
