To me, your arguement is the same as if someone said "well there are tons of people who die in car accidents even when their seatbelt is on, so whats the point of seatbelts?"
I hate the attitude that treats boxers like some kind of Human Cock Fight
Its bad enough that theyre being ripped off 9 out of 10 by their promoters,its bad enough theres all kinds of slugs coming around for investments for them(why Joe Frazier live in an apartment over his gym)do they have to get freaking killed for peoples amusment as well?
I'm saying some people can take that damage and some people can't. Those that can't should not be in the sport. I'm saying if you choose a tough occupation and receive congratulations on your bravery for it you can't be allowed to complain about the physical injuries you receive from it. Now getting ripped off is a whole other story. If promoters wanna make all that money they should get their asses in the ring to collect it.
