Combat sport

Combat sport is when two people have a pretend fight, kind of like when you play fight with your friends. But in combat sport, they follow rules to make sure that no one gets hurt too badly. Some of the most popular combat sports are boxing, where they wear big gloves and try to hit each other in the face and body, and martial arts like karate or taekwondo, where they use their hands and feet to try and score points by hitting their opponent in special spots on their body. In combat sport, the goal is to win by either getting more points or by making the other person give up or get knocked down, but it's important to remember that it's just pretend and no one is really trying to hurt anyone.
