I know many people bet on boxing matches and I recently saw a post on an "slapping tournament". I was thinking that professional boxing is kind of questionable as a sport discipline and even more so as a gambling event. It is known that many boxers sustain long term effects of repeated micro-trauma and even some have been know to die in the ring. For all boxing fans and for others that may have a view on this, how is this being considered a fully legal activity being supported? And how is betting of people hitting each other being considered as legal and ethical in today´s world?

Even in our early days there are even worst like Gladiator fighting and it has been recorded that there will no exception that once you lose then you must die.

I think the ethics in hurting each other in particular sports is required and this even the moment of the game , imagine a boxing without hurting? like Wrestling in which now comes to be scripted that's why the popularity of WWE goes lowered now.

That’s part of the game and we are playing like that since then, if you’re a boxer you already know that gamblers are betting with you that can actually boost your confidence because they’ll support you
