Enjoyment from watching others get hurt, and sociopathy

Is it a part of normal healthy human nature? Dunno

I'd like to see all kick boxing and boxing sports banned ...Especially boxing at the Olympics...

What? Why? Under what basis would they get banned? Some people don’t like to watch? Then don’t watch.
I can’t stand thinking of people being hurt against their will. It pains me. It hurts. But when they go in it willingly, I don’t understand why it’s worthy of being banned. I love watching strong people do their thing. I look up to them when they’re doing it under certain controlled circumstances. I wish I was stronger. I get to live strength through them. Heh makes sense to me. Which is why I also LOVE super hero movies. I also tend to cheer for the underdog. In my head, I love a good redemption story, a hero, a story of rising up against all odds. It gives me chills.

Why ban it? Are they being forced? Are they being enslaved to fight? No. They love it, and we love them for it.
