  • These boxers fight with cords wrapped around their fists

    They're hopeful of making this sport worldwide and one day an Olympic event. Haven't seen it yet, but it sounds brutal.

    Why's it only one hand? Southpaws going to have a massive advantage.

      One hand to shield, the other to batter. Just checked it out on YouTube. The ones I saw showed very little skill, but I can only imagine what a talented fighter could do. Imagine what a fighter like Lomachenko or Roy Jones in his prime would do with their trip hammer power punches and those cords wrapped on their fist? It would be gruesome...and I wouldn't be able to look away.
