Some people think that sports involving violence, such as boxing, martial arts, should be banned from TV and international sporting competitions. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

#people #sports #violence #arts #tv #competitions
The problem of some
sports
 associate with brutality should be banned or limited so that people would not be interfered with by those negative aspects, has been provoked a wide discussion. In my opinion, it would be wrong to amplify the partial sites and deviate from the original goal of athletics. So, I completely disagree about these suggestions. It is not deniable that some sorts of sport require much strength and force to battle with the opponent in the match,
such
 as boxing and fencing.
Although
 those
kinds
 of
sports
 may be violent to some extent in some cases, those athletes know how to stay away from injuries and
also
 abided by the competition rules on the
sports
 site. The whole aim of
sports
 is to compete and present the athletes' professional skills so that they can continue their hobby and career. Only amplify the characters of certain
sports
 is too reckless to consider and
also
 unfair to those who love these
sports
.
Besides
, boxing and martial arts
also
 can remind people to enhance their personal physical ability and enrich their choices when they want to participate in
such
sports
. Those
kinds
 of
sports
 cannot be equivalent to violent power without negative motivation. Boxing and some strengthening
sports
 do not mean bullying or crime that should be banned.
Furthermore
, boxing or
such
 kind of
sports
 can help the victims or females when they encounter dangerous situations and
also
 can protect themselves to be threatened by some criminals.
Such
kinds
 of classes can educate those communities to get rid of some troubles. In conclusion,
although
 those
kinds
 of sport maybe need more force to complete, it is hard to prove that seems like the same as violent crime or negative affect. Only aggravate the force requirement in a reckless way and
also
 derail the spirits of
sports
.
