Good question. Why I like a silver car but not a red one, why I like black pants or gray sweater; I really don’t know.
BoomBoom said “Its combat, its art, it creativity” Ok I agree, but why this kind of combat, why not another art?
Trainer Monkey gave us a good definition: “its chess with fists”, yes but why we like chess with fists? It’s quite impossible to answer.
We like what we like.
Anyway for some of us could be just a matter of habit, we watched boxing for long time with ours daddies, or we have a big brother boxer, etc.
We just got habit with it like Australians with rugby and Americans with American football.
