    I like it, but I'm still riding with my VR boxing league being a reality.

    The VR thing is gonna be bigger than the robot thing for our entertainment dollar I'd bet. At least in the nearer future. And destroying robots is lighting money on fire. With VR everything is "pretend" damage.

      It's not just athletes capable of this my opinion, adrenaline plays a big part of it and anger. I've been having a nightmare with a pair of degenerate neighbours. But my missus won't let me confront them and recently when she was out I'd had enough and straight punched combo's my metal fridgefreezer door repeatedly for over ten seconds at least, the dents I have left in it I'm certain would of dented skull. I'm not the biggest of blokes but I get snap of my punches combined with anger I get it can get a bit hectic sometimes.

        I see whats going on here. You want a 90s vision of the future, and Im stuck way back in the 80s vision of the future.

          Green K! Outstanding Sir.

          I don't know why this post cracked me up but it did. A man trying to **** out his fucking fridge-freezer.

          Don't think the warranty covers that fella!

            I think you're wrong. The point is that athletes are getting more athletic and stronger.

            Both games are physical with risk of CTE. Joe louis would get murked by wlad and AJ as he was undersized.

            if JOe louis had today training methods and supplements he would be a freak BUT A CRUISERWEIGHT

              True that's why bareknuckle is more boring.Cant throw combos they need to pick their shots a lot more careful(hitting head or elbows)

                  Like "this dude is just a man and KO"S other men like none other"
                  Yea I cant see ever getting to robots. But with this PCworld we live in and all this trying to protect us from ourselves bs.I could see it one day.When I went to Ireland they thought that was really weird(protecting us from ourselves)like the seat belt law.Try and think of another law where their is not ANY VICTIM.

                    I'm sorry and I don't know you but unless your very big and hit like Foreman there is no way in hell you could dent a skull with your punch.I doubt Foreman could and have you ever seen his hands!!!!!!!!!!
