Does anyone have an opnion on this?
Personally I feel that openly violent sports (such as boxing) should not be
encouraged in schools. The problem with Boxing being that it normally

mean that the youths involved will learn new techniques and then use them
outside the ring..
However there are those that agure that boxing also teachs self control...
