Scoring is typically based on the number of effective punches landed, defense skills, and overall control of the match. Boxing is governed by a set of rules that vary by region and organization, emphasizing safety and fair play. It has a rich history and is recognized both as a professional sport and an amateur pursuit, with various championships and organizations regulating competitions worldwide.
