In fairness though in boxing both combatants are fully informed of the risks and they choose to battle it out with gloves on.
Football players, not soccer but American football, are very often Christian.I love football too and the risks on the field are just as if not more so than in a boxing ring.
How many players in the field are now suffering the side effects of repeated tackles causing concussions?
How many football players have died on the field?
Tim Teebow praised God by kneeling in prayer after every play and pointing skyward. That made him famous. He isn't a great player but that move made him an icon of the faith for some.
I don't think we can question someone's faith because of the sport they participate in.
Manny P. uses the money he makes to better the world.
It was discovered a member of his staff was stealing from him some time ago. This made the news too. Rather than fire the guy, have him arrested, remembering Manny lived on the streets in the Philippines and starved as a child, he instead followed scripture and gave the man another chance. Realizing if he was stealing from him his state must have been desperate to bite the hand that was already feeding him a paycheck.
How many of us in our normal life where we don't make even close to what professional athletes do could say we'd do the same thing?
