Would boxing ruin my face?

If you're good enough to not allow your face to get hit very often, then it won't. Look at Oscar DH, he's retired with his good looks remain intact. You see, boxing is about hitting without getting hit. You gotta have good defensive tactics to avoid getting punched in the face, and you gotta be careful too. That's why the ref always tells fighters to "protect yourself at all times", and protecting one's self includes protecting one's face too.

Yes, you could incur:

1. broken, bent, flattened nose

2. scar tissue in eye brows.

Also, punches to the head cause brain damage.

well just gotta learn to protect it and i dont care how skilled you are everyone gets hit in boxing you wont get hit much but you still will get hit but that dosnt mean you will lose your looks

even if you will get hit..it will not affect your face as by training you get practise...i have a friend 15 yrs old who is in boxing ...he fought many times but absolutely fine...

I'm in my early 20s and was thinking about trying out boxing not to be a professional or anything just some amateur fun. The thing is...my mom has always not wanted me nor my younger brother to try out boxing because she doesn't want us to fk our faces up...and to be honest....I think as a guy I look above average and really...don't want to fk my face up its one of my weapons to get the girls LMAO. Giving my face away is like giving away 1/3 of my weapons lol.
