Your favorite thing about boxing?

[Check]

Only one answer per person. What is your favorite thing about the sport? I'll start and my favorite thing is, boxing is like the ultimate playoff system. If fighter A beats fighter B more times than not fighter A moves on to a stiffer competition until the playoff bracket moves to the top dawg.

Mayweather beats Marquez, Cotto beats Pacquaio, Mayweather then fights Cotto. This system in the sport when it's working properly is one of the most exciting things to me about the sport. Not only do you get hyped for the present fight but you also get hyped up for the potential fights between the victors.

It's pure competition. No weapons, no dirty tactics (allowed anyways), no ******s jumpin in when you gettin your ass whooped. Just str8 up, man on man combat. No sissy kicks or any of that ****. It's a real fight, the way it oughta be.

the pure buzz when someone gets hit or your favourite fighter is doing really well in a fight
i have done all sorts of drugs but you really cant beat that rush

The combination of athleticism and intelligence. Developing a game plan with strategy to succeed in hitting your opponent and not allowing him to do the same, and then having to display your athletic talent as you try to do it.

I agree with ultimate competition
