"SYDNEY - The Australian Medical Association (AMA) called for a ban on
boxing on Tuesday following the death of a 28-year-old fighter after
he was knocked unconscious in the ring."
AMA vice-president Dr Stephen Parnis said it was time to ban boxing.
"One punch can kill -- whether you are outside a pub on a Friday night
or in a boxing ring -- and this is the thing that causes young lives
to be ended so traumatically," he said, according to Australian
broadcaster ABC's website.
Perhaps the cycling media can emulate this sentiment :-) Just think, A
total and for ever end to these traumatic bicycle deaths!
