Actually, I think a number of your points have merit, had you presented them as opinions there might have been the possibility of a coherent discussion. As it is, I can't really see your overall point. One minute you say that you don't like the extreme aggression and disregard for opponents safety, then complain about amateur boxers not trying to knock each other out, which is inherently disregarding your opponents safety.
You claim to give examples for your opinions, but I don't see any. As for my boxing background, I was an amateur boxer and fought in the Irish championships as a teenager. I gave up boxing after sparring with a clubmate without safety equipment, and knocking him out, leading to a blood clot in his brain. Luckily he was all right, but I hope you can forgive my reaction to your ideas, seeing as I have a lot of experience in the subject. I don't know if you have spent a week as a teenager thinking you killed a friend, but it certainly strengthens your convictions.
