One of the oldest combat sports in the world is boxing. It is a sport that requires padded gloves in the ring, and two boxers (people who contest boxing fights) attempting to hit each other. Boxing can be won by a variety of different means. One is a knockout when a fighter is caught and lies to the ground and cannot get up in 10 seconds.
Another way is by the technical knockout, where the fighter can't stay in the battle so the referee ends it. Knockout methods and defeats also constitute boxer knockout wins or losses. The men's fights last three minutes per round, while the women's take two minutes.
Each boxing game has a different category, a different weight class. These are informal categories made in order for a boxer to compete against another boxer of a similar size. Some athletes would also train hard to lose weight by diet and dehydration before weighing up to meet the appropriate weight class. Check out the boxing schedule for February.
