        He aint kidding. Ppl think head gear is some sort of motor bike helmet yet you feel the same impact as without it for the most part its that headgear protects you from cuts. Every punch rocks your brain and after every sparring session where you get hit alot you feel like your brain bouncing in your head like a basketball. Some ppl maybe different but thats how i felt.

          It really does. Fighters that are noted as gym warriors have very short careers, and do not end up well. Take Terry Norris for example.

            One way is to reduce mismatches. Are you listening WBC?

              I just watched this bout. Strange but sad ending. Fans love and hate various boxers but I believe no fan would ever want to see this in the ring.
