There are many different injuries that a boxer could get…as in any sport. Boxing ranks as the safest sport among contact sports such as football and wrestling and among other events such as equestrian events and motorcyle racing.
Boxing ranks lower in number of injuries when compared to hockey, soccer, gymnastics, football and even in-line skating.
