That was a really good read. Interesting timing too considering we've had a lot of ring related deaths lately, and to professional boxers in general.

I think it boils down to ignorance with preconceived notions of danger, in relation to other sports and %'s of brain injuries, vs risk of reward and life prolonging benefits which you've also covered nicely.

I'm going to read it again shortly, as I'm guessing when you posted it all the paragraphs got pushed together by accident, makin it a bit of a tougher go.

Overall a great read and nice job.
