Peculiarities and stages of development of sportsmanship of qualified athletes in the system of long- term performances in professional boxing

Abstract

The article examines the peculiarities of the formation of the highest sportsmanship of athletes in professional boxing. A comparative analysis of the dynamics of competitive activity of men and women during many years of performances in the professional arena was carried out. Considered options for building a professional career of boxers, taking into account the experience of performances in prestigious amateur competitions, as well as existing trends of liberalization and globalization of the modern Olympic movement. The individual dynamics of the long-term career of famous male and female professional boxers, who at one time owned championship belts in various weight categories, are presented. The optimal age range for demonstrating the highest sports results in boxing has been determined. The influence of international sports organizations (WBC, WBA, WBO, IBF, etc.) on the formation of sports careers of athletes in professional boxing is analyzed.
 Systematized and considered stages of formation of the highest sportsmanship in professional boxing: 1) formative stage of 18-24 years (quantitative intensification of competitive activity); 2) - the stage of optimal opportunities (championship phase) - 25-35 years; 3) the stage of preservation and gradual decline of sports results - 35 years and more. It has been established that men have a longer formative phase of their professional career, which is characterized by a significantly greater number of preparatory matches in the initial stages of its formation and a longer period of time to maintain the achieved results in the final stages of multi-year improvement. The need to take into account the important regularities of the formation of the highest sportsmanship in boxing and the rational logistics of planning matches during the annual training cycle, taking into account the stage of the sports career and the age of the athletes, is substantiated.
