Tell me football isn't dangerous when Troy Aikman has pads and a helmet on and gets concussion after concussion....it's not because Troy is soft either.

Boxing is dangerous but so is football.

I would love to see these hard ass rugby players try and tackle Barry Sanders or Jim Brown
No one said football isn't dangerous, but compared to boxing it's less. When was the last time a player was "hit" by another player and killed or paralyzed? It's been a while. Not saying boxer are killed on regular basis.

Yeah troy aikman had a concussion....but he's still making money from broadcasting...I'll take that hit from lavar arrington that ended troy's career over the hits gerald mclellan, muhammed ali, meldtrick taylor, all took any day...


boxings always been a bloodthirsty sport hence the reason it isnt seen to be watched by children/women and you dont get daytime fights.

But that in itself is pretty unique. I think lyle was talking in terms of contact sport aggression!
