    To respond to you simply, not every boxer falls into this category, but there are those like Corallez, Ghatti, Tapia, who are/were willing to die in the ring. It's not as simple as being selfish, for these men it's what they live for, and to them quitting when not ready is worst than death. Most of these women and families know what they are in for. Would it not be equally as selfish to force some one to change their entire being because you were uncomfortable with it, or because you were afraid. Yeah in a perfect world no one would get hurt and every boxer would retire right on time, but the reality of the sport is most will retire on time or a little after, and they will have nothing but scars as ailments. Few will have speech impediments, and yet far fewer will unfortunately receive life altering issues. The crazy thing is, the vast majority of all these boxers would not hesitate to do it all again. Like I said, this is not as simple as being selfish or unselfish.
    I agree. For a boxer is more about competitiveness and honor. Anyway I guess for an ordinary guy like myself, I call it selfish because I do like to think about the consequences and my immediate family. But like I said, I do agree with your point of view.

He payed a small debt to the government for ruining ppl whole lives. So if it was my family I would be happy to see him this way. It wasn't so I really don't have that strong a feeling either way. Just stating a fact.

      Proof you lost the debate: Brings up free speech, refuses to acknowledge he paid his debt to society, throws out jr high kid type insults.
