'''Boxing''' is an [[olympic]] arena [[sport]] where two opponents hit each other (usually wearing red gloves). Boxing is perhaps the most challenging sport of all. A boxer requires a unique blend of [[speed]], [[strength]], and [[endurance]]. In addition to these qualities, he must stand up to the punishment inflicted by an equally matched opponent. To withstand the inevitable [[pain]] and [[fatigue]], the boxer must possess a mind that is as tough as his body.  Boxing is still very popular, possibly having roots in ancient [[Greek]] styles of boxing, although with certain and clearly defined roots in the bare-knuckle fights in England in the early-modern era, being given modern rules in the 19th century by the Marquess of Queensbury.
