Question

How much % of boxers would you say to get brain damage?

Answer 1

I have to agree with Woody, less than 10 percent.  You have these fighters that hang around too long, and the reflexes fail them but they are the last ones to see it.  Boxing referees literally have these fighters lives in their hands, kudos to the Referees.

Answer 2

All of them . Any human being who step  into a boxing ring for either money, kudos, anger or pride are mentally deficient and than there chance of more brain damage of after effects of being in the boxing ring and boxing.

Answer 3

this website - http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/abs... said: Eighty-seven percent of the professional boxers had definite evidence of brain damage.

Answer 4

100%

how would you feel if you were getting punched in the head.

Answer 5

Just based on my personal opinion, without looking up facts, I would immediately guess less than ten percent have or will end with severe brain damage.
