i was brought up as a kid in a football dominated society but remember getting hooked on the sport at a very early age.

It causes excitement any game or sport cant quite live up to because no game of footie/NFL etc will ever match the intensity of 2 world class fighters beating the living hell out of eachother.

Those few moments before the fighters enter the ring...the passion....the intensity....the raw emotion you feel just cannot be simulated anywhere.

You dont have to ask yourself why you love the sport because millions also do and even those that dont still get excited about big fights because boxing represents something that just cannot be matched in everyday life!
