在拳击比赛过程中或在拳击生涯中出现的创伤有不同的特征。它们是被认为是非常罕见的，还是非常常见的，这是一个见仁见智的问题。有时有人声称，拳击本身并不比其他一些体育赛事造成更多的伤亡。因此，奥斯陆的Johansen(1955)分析了1946-2008年期间发生的6057起运动损伤：在14项运动项目中排名第十的拳击只造成了100起事故(1.65%)。这与滑雪(1784人，占29.4%)和足球(1320人，占21.8%)形成鲜明对比。然而，拳击与大多数其他形式的体育运动有一个重要的区别。在其他运动项目中，受伤是巧合的，但在拳击中使用拳击的目的和对象--无论是明确的还是暗示的--都是为了让对手不再战斗。因此，与其说Traumata感到遗憾，不如说是感到遗憾。这篇论文既不支持拳击，也不反对拳击。业余拳击当然可以实现许多有用的目的，无论是社会学还是个人目的。业余拳击的好处是否大于坏处，这是一个由其他人决定的问题；而一些人可能会认为，职业拳击本身就是一个问题。本文的目的只是列举拳击造成的一些主要不良影响，特别是指在职业生涯后期可能出现的神经精神恶化。
Traumata arising in the course of boxing contests or during a pugilistic career are diverse in character. Whether they are to be regarded as commendably rare or as alarmingly common is a matter of opinion. It is sometimes claimed that boxing per se causes no more injuries or fatalities than some other sporting events. Thus Johansen (1955), of Oslo, has analysed a series of 6,057 sport injuries occurring during the period 1946-8: of these, boxing, whichcame tenth out of a list of 14 athletic pursuits, was held responsible for only 100 accidents (1.65%). This contrasts with the numbers attributed to skiing (1,784, or 29.4%) and to football (1,320, or 21.8%).One important distinction, however, distinguishes boxing from most other forms of athleticism. Injuries are coincidental in other sports, but inboxing the aim and object-explicit or implied-is to render the opponent hors de combat. Traumata are therefore not so much regrettedas regrettable. This paper makes no plea either for or against pugilism. Amateur boxing can certainly fulfil many useful purposes, sociological as well as personal. Whether the benefits of amateur boxing outweigh the drawbacks is a question for others to decide; while some may well consider that professional pugilism forms a problem all of its own. The purposeof this communication is merely to enumerate some of the principal ill effects which have been ascribed to boxing, with particular reference to the neuro-psychiatric deterioration which may develop late in the career of a prize-fighter.
