The Olympics is a chance that not many athletes get to experience. Therefore, some people do not participate in the Olympics because they do not qualify for it, but others do not participate in the Olympics because they prefer not to. The two sports that seem to not send the most qualified athletes to the Olympics are from the sports of boxing and wrestling.

Even though all sports can be dangerous, many boxers, their managers, and promoters fear that sending their athletes to the Olympics will hurt the boxer’s career due to injuries and it will cost the promoters money. Since the promoters can’t make money during the boxer’s time in the Olympics, the boxer, their managers and their promoters will lose money.
