Boxing officially ranked 75th most dangerous sport

[-Kev-]

Espn ranked it first > whoever ranked boxing
75th.... Boxing is at least top 3 most dangerous sports not negotiable

ESPN didn't rank it, they got the list, it was a panel of expert sports scientists from the United States Olympic Committee that study the science of muscle and movement. They ranked Boxing #1 most physically demanding/toughest sport in the world, not most dangerous. Though it's BS that it's the 75th most dangerous sport in this list. That is just BS to the 3rd degree. There's actually 74 safer "sports" than boxing? Get out of here lol. I bet they placed Hopscotch at in the top 10. Maybe even Tennis is in front of Boxing? Oh wait, you can drown in swimming races, so let's out that in front of boxing too. These ****** ******, whoever made that list lol.

People get KO'd more by random golf balls than they do in boxing. And those old men driving those golf carts, damn.

Why are people getting so butt hurt over this, is it a bad thing that boxing safety has improved so much over the years?

I doubt they count cuts and bruises as injuries and it's common sense that those other sports would have more serious injuries if you think about it. In most of those sports on the list when things go wrong the equipment and force of them hitting the floor, each other etc is a lot more than someone punching you.

A sport where the entire goal is to hurt your opponent, doesn't even make it into the top 10 lol

A sport where the entire goal is to hurt your opponent, doesn't even make it into the top 10 lol

It's also a sport where nearly every rule is to prevent the competitors getting serious injuries.
