    Fighting is the 1st sport ever created by man. It's in our blood to be interested in some form of combat.

    We're just acting on our human nature.

    Watching 2 guys that are so much better than you at something that REALLY tests a Human's will and gameness is exciting as hell.

        You can take that idea very far.

          Boxing at it's most violent point is an art form.

            Violence is not a problem as long as it is a fair fight. If you enjoy watching four guys beat one guy that would be a problem. Enjoying a fair fight where both guys do their uttermost is nothing strange. Every man enjoys competition. It's a great thing to watch someone go beyond what you thought possible.

                    I dunno, I guess seeing fighting is in our genetics, but there's always a line, you see some of those bum fights on youtube (I mean actual bare knuckle in a backyard ****) and that's shocking

                    Not sure if anyone saw the one with the skinhead who started gargling, that was unpleasant. . .
