    What's so Scientific about the "Sweet Science"?

    That does not involve mathematics.

    Can someone educate me more on this matter please?

      Boxing takes a calculated approach,foot placement,distance,timing,reflexes,remaining calm in a stressful situation.its not just about throwing a bunch of punches and getting hit in the face.boxing is a art,while im throwing a punch im also still in position to evade your counter and vise versa..........

          Boxing is an athletic sport where two men use proven scientific methods to prepare their bodies for combat, and use proven scientific methods to win said combat. Where isn't there science?

            Of course I understand. But I'm sure there is explanation to more than just numbers/formulas. If you get what I'm saying.

            Thanks for the vid by the way but it really just who's faster.
