Why boxing should not be considered a sport

I am for the most part a movie critic. I have written over 800 movie reviews. There for I know the cinema well, six of the movies I wrote critiques for had the word Rocky in the title. While the first film in this six film series may have on Best Picture in 1976 I feel, as a whole the film series is a total let down. By the sixth and hopefully final movie in the series I am not sure what Rocky was fighting for. His closing line in the first Oscar winning film was "Yo, Adrian I did it!" in the final film in the six film series he could not have been fighting for her. For Tilia Shire (Adrian) was not even on the cast list. To me boxing is simply a form of glamorized fighting. Two men stand in the middle of a ring (which is rectangular bye the way) and continue to jab and poke at each other till one is "knocked out" or simply falls to the ground for a total of ten seconds. The man left standing is considered the winner. The winner of six creaked ribs, two black eyes and a bloody left fist. I don’t see the prize here. The actual or extrinsic prize is a big gold belt that can never or should never be worn outside the secluded stadium. Mike Tyson him self admitted recently that unlike a Hall of Fame Line backer who said he would always help up the victim he tackled after “The Hit” that a boxer does not want his opponent to come back up. “You learn to keep puling your opponent till you see the life go out of his eyes” He told an undisclosed morning news show host that “you do not want your opponent to come back up!” He later went to inform the home viewing audience that when a boxer fights he doss not do show as an individual but as a ‘son’ or a ‘husband’ or some other beloved member of the family. This is ironic for I always beloved your were supposed to love your family and honor them with kindness and gentleness and respect not use them as foster to pummel the snot out of the person in front of you.
