Wyoming Legalizes Bare Knuckle Fighting

[Johnston]

I'm sure there are some, but I don't believe its attainable for most. And certainly not at the activity level of pro boxers with 6+ fights early in their career & even 2 or 3 fights during their primes.

Yea it really has to put some wear on your body, it just reminded me of the travelers who do this from a young age all the way till their old men

More broken hands and faces for sure but maybe less brain damage.

For all we know it might be safer than regular boxing. The damage people can dish out with bare hands could be limited.

Is BK fighting legal anywhere else in the US????

Is BK fighting becoming a thing in Wyoming or elsewhere or something?

Whats this about?????

A lot more boring without gloves.Cant throw compo's less punches.You need to be a lot more careful to avoid breaking hands.

Your right 100% cant just unload got to pick shots well to avoid breaking hands.More blood like MMA but BOTH are safer in long run.

I've seen some of those UK guy BK fights & I kinda dig them. Definitely a slower pace doe so I can understand it being seen as boring. They don't even have rounds so when guys are gassed it can come to a near standstill in action which isn't fan friendly.

I just like most forms of fighting. Outside of wrestling I pretty much can watch any type of legit fighting.

OH yea its better then golf anyday.But that's REAL reason they went to gloves to protect hands not heads.But yea ill watch it over some rerun of TBBT.

Why would fighters compete in this thing instead of just becoming boxers? I don't get it. It's more risk for less money, isn't it

The risk of brain injury and death is much lower because BK boxers don’t go to the head as much

boxing didn't become boxing until the hands became gloved. quality of the sport will be very low. i guess it will be bloodier, if that's what you want to see?
