Yo Adrian!! This excavation site in Israel uncovered a bust made of marble that experts say could be an ancient sculpture of a boxer. Apparently, boxers were held in high regard back then (not like they aren't now!). Some people might be put off by the sport exhibition, but, just like 2000 years ago, people go crazy to see someone beat the heck out of another person. When I watch these movies depicting life back in the year before "Christ" was born, I think "What savages!" But, in reality, we are now no different. We watch PPV boxing and UFC matches and seem to love them. Who are we kidding? Just listen to Jim Lampley's voice during a championship match to see what I mean....
