Boxing is Like Cockfighting But Only One is Illegal

In July, 2 boxers died from injuries sustained after their fights in different venues.  Hmm. I consider boxing a form of human cockfighting. I’m disgusted by the concept of jabbing fists into an opponent’s head and body for entertainment. Not sure which bothers me more: the boxer who enters the small ring to be physically abused or the audience who gets pleasure out of watching 2 men fight in a small boxing ring.

Like boxing, cockfighting consists of 2 living things (roosters) that are put in a small ring with the solitary purpose of fighting to win (or until death). Cockfighting is illegal in all 50 states…I wonder why boxing is legal in all 50 states.  I don’t find anything entertaining about watching anybody or any animal hurting one another.
