Why boxing?
Boxing can help shape young boys into virtuous men by developing these virtues.
“For Catholic boxers that equated physical suffering with spiritual redemption, a boxing match enacted the central spiritual mysteries of the faith—the imitatio Christi personified in a boxer’s willingness to endure suffering for a greater cause, the Stations of the Cross in his perseverance through round after round of punishment, the stigmata in the gashes and abrasions that collected on his body as a fight wore on, and Christological death and resurrection each time a boxer was knocked down and managed to rise back to his feet.”
“Boxing echoed and affirmed a uniquely Catholic view that understood physical suffering as a path to religious purity and bodily mortification as a tool for spiritual edification.” Sourced from: American magazine
