    That would prove a disadvantage: when aiming for the peak of the chin, you would land on the Twig+Berries.

      I thought it had something to do with the glove sliding off the beard also.

          and anyway who wants to see a big ugly mug on the TV wit a beard full of last night dinner
          Actually, a 1 or 2 day growth is far more abrasive than a full beard. Ask any woman.

            Rough beards are like wire gauze especially over aggrevated skin. Any fighter already having a cut rubbing heads w/ a fighter w/ a beard will only cause more damage. Short beards are permissable like Howard Eastman's

              I have a question for you. I have a pretty good beard going on my nuts, is that going to protect me from low blows?

                If you can get the "oversprayed finger-wave" look:
                Like SRR in my avatar, then yes. You would need 10 cans of hairspray to achieve that effect however.

                Mayweather would break his hand on your crotch.

                    You know, that reminds me of something that's bothered me for years. Men have their genitals on the outside, women on the inside....is that some kind of sick, ****ing joke, or what? Men, the warrior of the race, the gender that's supposed to be able to fight to protect the female and young, has their genitals just hanging out there in the open within easy reach of a kick, fist, or even teeth, while women, who don't naturally make war or fight battles, have nothing to worry about other than ordinary bruising, etc. and aren't rendered senseless and curled into a puking fetal ball with a single shot to the genitals.
