    Your grasp of the subject tells me you've narrowly survived innumerous beatings via horse hair gloves. Were they foam gloves you might still have a clue.

        Do yourself a favor and don't listen to the idiots who talk about this "TOE TO TOE" stuff, make sure you use head movement and defense. Boxing Gyms are actually teaching Kids to use head movement and keep their guard up that are some of the first things you actually learn. It is not a Gym around the world that is teaching kids to block punches with their faces.

          Honestly I see Bradley as having future problems. He won't go insane, but he'll lose a distinct ability.

          Alvarado + drugs won't last very long.

                  I do feel like the odds have went down on serious injuries & deaths in recent years in more regulated regions. I'd imagine the long term stuff is probably the same. Can't be getting hit in the head for several years & not have long term effects. We don't get to see that stuff as much cuz once a guy retires hes mostly out of sight out of mind.

I'm a biomed student, we do tests for all sorts of diseases and not any patient is treated higher than any other no matter how rich or whatever they are. Howver I've been offered placements elsewhere and the treatments or record keeping is nowhere near as good as the uk.


                      you're not reading my post correctly. this isn't a van damme movie. there are not hundreds of "unregulated boxing deaths" each year.
