    i though you was ok for boxing with a broken toe? but you had difficulty landing the right hand ?

    But really this is a serious question !

    As a serious answer, any sort of heart or brain condition is obviously going to prevent you from boxing.

    It may also vary from country to country. I remember reading something about diabetics being banned in England (but they were reviewing the rule and maybe they aren't anymore).

    Is there some specific condition you have that you are wondering about? Best way is to get a medical form from your trainer and take it to your doctor.

    Severe diarrhea is a no go.
