Death of Young Athlete

I was so saddened to learn this week of the death of a young athlete in the sport of boxing, apparently caused by a knockout blow during a welterweight fight.   I find it so hard to believe that a sport in which the primary goal is to knock out your opponent still curries favor among the masses.  Other sports may be hazardous and involve injury, but no other sport in the world has as its sole mission to hit someone hard enough to cause a brain injury.  Hard to believe . . .  For the entire story, click on the following link:  http://msn.foxsports.com/boxing/story/9838806/Boxer,-23,-dies-four-days-after-knockout-loss
