Generally people know the essential idea of one of today's most violent sports, Amir Khan vs Canelo Alvarez, but contrary to public opinion, boxing is amongst the oldest competitive sports still enjoyed today. Boxing has existed for thus long, it has even been depicted for the walls of tombs in Egypt, dating from around 2000 to 1500 B.C. Boxing seemed to be used by the empires of Ancient Rome and Greece. Even though the Greek fought with leather straps wrapped around their fists, the Romans used gloves wound with metal strips which promised an infinitely more "interesting" show. Today's boxing is of coarse a lot more civilized but it still carries on the tradition of heart pounding adrenaline that its ancient counterpart began.

The most popular and comprehensive methods to watch boxing at its best, is HBO Boxing. HBO Boxing has had to us thousands of fights of recent history. Even though the roots of boxing sink many thousands of years deep, you can still find legends produced in this spectacular sport every time. HBO Boxing's first official event pitted George Foreman against the great Joe Frazier only for two rounds naming George Foreman the World Heavyweight Champion. Since HBO Boxing's first fight, there is many great bouts such as "The rumble in the Jungle" the location where the legendary Muhammad Ali defeated George Foreman, along with the more modern "Bite Fight" which featured Iron Mike Tyson devouring the ear of Evander Holyfield, which experts claim, will usually remind us until this great sport remains to be filled with as much surprises as adrenaline.
