What is Boxing? 

Boxing is a sport that can be trained both as an amateur and professionally. It involves attack and defense with the fists. Boxers usually wear padded gloves and generally observe the code set forth in the marquess of Queensberry rules.

Matched in weight and ability, boxing contestants try to land blows hard and often with their fists, each attempting to avoid the blows of the opponent. A boxer wins a match either by outscoring the opponent—points can be tallied in several ways—or by rendering the opponent incapable of continuing the match. Bouts range from 3 to 12 rounds, each round normally lasting three minutes.

The terms pugilism and prizefighting in modern usage are practically synonymous with boxing, although the first term indicates the ancient origins of the sport in its derivation from the Latin pugil, “a boxer,” related to the Latin pugnus, “fist,” and derived in turn from the Greek pyx, “with clenched fist.” The term prizefighting emphasises pursuit of the sport for monetary gain, which began in England in the 17th century.

What are the rules of Boxing?

Boxing has interesting rules and they are the same for fights in every category. The most basic rules are: Each round shall consist of a three minute duration, with a one minute rest period between rounds. The referee is the sole arbiter of a bout and is the only individual authorised to stop a contest. This rule shall not preclude a video or other review of a decision under the procedures of the applicable regulatory authority if a protest is filed claiming a clear rule violation. All bouts are evaluated and scored by three judges. 

The 10 Point Must System is the customary system of scoring a bout. The Mandatory Eight Count after knockdowns is a standard procedure in all bouts. All professional boxers are required to wear a mouthpiece during competition. 

The round cannot begin without the mouthpiece. If the mouthpiece is dislodged during competition, the referee will call time and have the mouthpiece replaced at the first opportune moment, without interfering with the immediate action. Points may be deducted by the referee if he feels the mouthpiece is being purposely spit out. 

A boxer shall receive a twenty second count if the boxer is knocked out of the ring. If assisted by anyone, the boxer may lose points or be disqualified with such a decision being within the sole discretion of the referee. A boxer who has been knocked down cannot be saved by the bell in any round. If a boxer sustains an injury from a fair blow and the injury is severe enough to terminate the bout, the injured boxer shall lose by TKO.

What are the benefits of Boxing lessons? 

Boxing has many health benefits for everyone who practices it. One of them is strength. You're swinging your arms, moving the muscles of your arms and shoulders, increasing your upper-body strength. And when you're in the boxer crouch with a wide stance, with your knees slightly bent, you're strengthening your core muscles, back, and legs. Stronger muscles make it easier to get up out of a chair or carry a bag of groceries.

Boxing is also a great aerobic exercise. Aerobic exercise gets your heart pumping and helps lower the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. It can strengthen bones and muscles, burn more calories, and lift mood. Aerobics can also boost your endurance, which helps you climb a flight of stairs or walk farther.
