Multistate Bar Examination Practice Question

Two professional boxers were engaged in a championship match. At the end of the third round, the bell rang, signaling the boxers to return to their corners. One boxer, frustrated with his performance, walked over to his opponent, who had his back turned, and punched him in the back of the head, causing a serious injury. The injured boxer sued the other for battery.

Will the injured boxer likely prevail?

  • Yes, because boxing is an abnormally dangerous activity for which there is strict liability.

  • No, unless the boxer who threw the punch intended to cause the specific, serious injury that resulted.

  • Yes, because the punch occurred after the bell rang, it was outside the scope of the consent given by participating in the match.

  • No, because by agreeing to participate in a boxing match, the injured boxer consented to any and all contact from his opponent.
