Ultimate Fighting Championship
Overview: Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is a Mixed Martial Arts promotion company founded in 1993 to highlight fighters from a variety of disciplines. The original intent of Ultimate Fighting Championship was to find which discipline was most useful in a real fight. The UFC initially encountered resistance as it was far less safe than any other contact sport. After revamping the UFC's rules structure to comply with state athletics commissions, the UFC (and MMA in general) began to enjoy a more mainstream appeal.

Boxing
Overview: A community portal about Boxing with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Boxing, also called pugilism, prizefighting or the sweet science, is a sport and martial art in which two participants of similar weight fight each other with their fists in a series of one to three-minute intervals called "rounds". In both Olympic and professional divisions, the combatants avoid their opponent's punches while trying to land punches of their own. Points are awarded for clean, solid blows to the legal area on the front of the opponent's body above the waistline, with hits to the head and torso being especially valuable. The fighter with the most points after the scheduled number of rounds is declared the winner. Victory may also be achieved if the opponent is knocked down and unable to get up before the referee counts to ten or if the opponent is deemed too injured to continue. For record-keeping purposes, a TKO is usually counted as a knockout when calculating the total knockouts.
