Is Boxing morally wrong?
My parents are telling me it is morally wrong to box/watch boxing. Which sucks because that's the only thing I live for.
Morality is subjective, I can't answer that question. Clearly they think it's immoral and if you're living in their house you have to respect that.

Any idea what they have to say about other martial arts? If those are acceptable, then what makes boxing different?

Bloodsports are civilization, from the Bronze age to now
Excitement, thrill, tempered bloodlust and gambling, all in one setiing
Add skill, resilience and physical prowess
Martial arts are the backbone of civilization

That sounds like a great seventh grade phys ed thesis, but you provided nothing to back it up.
Any decently educated soccermom could tear that apart.
Nah senpai, it's a sport, there are rules and weight classes and it's fully consensual.
As long as the violence is happening between consenting adults following a set of rules then I don't see what is morally wrong about it. People hurt their body when they eat fast food but it's not morally wrong to look at someone eating an hamburger.

No, it is not morally wrong.

Don't give it up over some bullshit.
Watch out for Al Zheimer though!
