Boxing causes the brain to be rattled about the cranium from repeated blows to the head. This frequently leads to brain damage and is the cause of a boxer being called punchy or being said to be walking on his heels.

From what I understand, there is a disease quite similar to Parkinson's which can be occur as a result of boxing. I think this was learned in my physiology of psychology class a year ago and we were also told at this time that this is actually what Ali has.

Of course, you need look no further than Muhammod Ali to see this. He was one of the most powerful men in the world, but now his brain has deteriorated to the point where he can barely move and think any more. It is a shame, but that is what a constant pummeling of your head leads to.

It can. Any trauma to the head can make the brain strike the skull doing damage.

It depends on how many punches to the head a boxer has taken.
