I have noticed that since the mid 90's alot more boxers "groin" protectors are finishing at the bottom of their ribs or at least going past their belly buttons.
I for one think it is crap, it pretty much negates body punching which I think is becoming useless/lost art due to the fact that boxers are protected their. If they lower the height I believe we will see al ot more body shot KO's which I think are way more brutal than some other KO's due to the pain factor (anyone who has taken a hit in the liver will understand). I say the commissions need to come down on it and regulate the sizes of "groin" protectors.
Just my opinion but does anyone feel the same??
