boxing

A sport played by two men or women, in a series of rounds lasting two minutes, where the boxers hit their opponents face or chest, until the opponent is knocked unconscious for 10 seconds.

This is the only sport requiring a win from knocking another unconconscious. It is also a dangerous sport, with a good chance of retiring early with a permanently damaged brain.

Matilda is leading a campaign to have Boxing banned and made illegal.
