      Your comment did nothing but confirm that I shouldn't take the question seriously. You for some reason brought up Santa Claus which gave me even more of a reason to laugh at your post. Don't know what your stance was on this because bringing up a fictional character made me ignore everything you said.

        Maybe a cement beard would work

              Pretty sure it wasn't Santa Clause but the word physics that caused your synapses to misfire. Anyway, it is a physics problem and beard thickness is a major factor.

                That's cute... Are you trying to help your girl friend get her point across....lol.

                Maybe the word "physics" makes you feel smarter and you think it somehow confuses others,but understand not everyone struggled with their public education like the individuals you choose to associate yourself with.

                NOBODY'S beard is so thick it's going to to protect them from getting KO'd in the ring. Period. The rule is in place due to the issues it causes with cuts/irritation/etc....not because it "provides cushion" for your chin.

                You can provide a million links from your google search and not one of them has some scientific survey showing proof that individuals with beards get KO'd less than those with a "baby face"......lol. FOH.....

                  Ask Dotnay Wilder. He is a chinless wonder. It might help a very small amount.

                    Froid challenges Caleb Plant, Adrien Broner and Robert Helenius nowadays in the ring.
