Boxing Bets

Don King, on Mike Tyson


"Why would anyone expect him to come out smarter?
He went to prison, not to Princeton."



"To me, boxing is like a ballet, except there's no music
and the dancers hit each other."

Yuriorkis Gamboa vs Terence Crawford Full Fight (High Quality)


Published on Aug 26, 2014
On June 28, 2014 Gamboa faced off against undefeated WBO titlist Terence Crawford on HBO boxing after dark. Gamboa got off to a hot start, winning the first 4 rounds and using his superior foot speed and hand speed but was caught and dropped by a left hook in the 5th round. Gamboa continued to fight back but was dropped again in the 8th and finally was stopped in the 9th round after two knockdowns and a huge right hook by Crawford. "We were just two warriors in the ring trying to get the victory, and he won." stated Gamboa after the bout. This was Gamboa's first loss as a professional, ending his undefeated streak.

Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy

From a medical standpoint, each time a fighter is hit in the head, he or she risks a brain bleed that can kill within minutes. And repeated trauma can result years later in chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or C.T.E., which can cause aggressive behavior, depression and eventually dementia.

Boxing has been my favorite sporting event for most of my life.

In view of all the discussion about sport safety, making boxing more like fencing is a way to protect amateur boxers from serious head injuries.

It is easier to promote safety than call for an outright ban of boxing as a sport like many Medical Associations suggest.
