That's BBC for you. No surprise .

I think this video's talking about boxing as in training, for amateur boxing you may face brain damage [only if you get knocked out for an extended period of time] but besides that, you'll be fine sparring. Sparring won't do any harm. Sparring will basically just make you a better boxer, and sure, it'll hurt, but this is boxing. This isn't a joke and everyone should take it seriously. If you're training for boxing, but you don't compete, why are you even boxing? For that reason I recommend you to have physical combat and try to atleast become an amateur, and after you've done a good 10-50 amateur fights just move on to being a pro. This is my genuine recommendation. And remember, your doctors are gonna try their best to discourage you and call you an idiot for boxing, just don't listen to them and keep going [unless you literally cant walk anymore].

@@dtbumar Thanks for enlightening me.

Check on Tony Jefferies’ content on this. But long story short of course if you’re getting hit in the head, it’s gonna be bad for your brain. Those little bumps add up even if they aren’t huge smacks. Some people do shoulder body sparring where there’s no head punches which has some risk but much less. What this guy is on about saying you can’t get hurt in the gym is crazy. You don’t need an audience to damage your brain.

@@micahisonYT Thanks for the heads-up, I will consider your Tony Jefferies content suggestion.

Yes, boxing is dangerous in itself. I mean the sport is basically about hurting another person with punches, so it will damage your body and your brain. However, if you decide not to compete (I know a lot of people who don’t) and you spar only occasionally, then you should be fine. I boxed amateur, and a lot of people at my club just trained for the health benefits and they are fine. However, concussions are still a risk and you have to accept it.
