Abstract

Amateur boxing practiced at the Olympic Games has been evolving in conditions of safety for its athletes. The most common injuries are head wounds and lacerations, brain concussions and fractures. However, professional boxing has not kept up with this trend of revising rules and promoting greater safety, turning their athletes prone to severe injuries, especially head and neck injuries. The knowledge of epidemiology and biomechanics of boxing injuries may allow athletes and coaches to anticipate injuries and adopt effective prevention strategies.
