  1. energy of impact does not magically disappear. padding only allows spreading it across a larger surface. the brain will suffer the exact same acceleration regardless of the thickness of the gloves used. the only change will be in how much damage the fist of the puncher and the face of the guy punched will take.
    gloves are the biggest hoax in the history of modern sports. we know they dramatically increase the risk of TBI, and yet we keep them because they make a better show by making shots easier to block and causing only invisible damage instead of visible blood and bruises. just ask any athlete if he would rather finish his career at 30yo with an ugly face or senile like an old man…

  2. The caption is a test of glove

  3. In my opinion (as a former amateur boxer) the boxing gloves are the most dangerous because of two things… first they give you a sense of significant protection of the hands, digits, and joints which provides confidence in striking performance. Secondly they significantly increase the surface area of the contact area of the hand. This is why i actually find boxers to be the most dangerous strikers. Guys like Mike Perry have bodies that are very atypical and can handle significant trauma which is why he successfully defeats in bare knuckle. If you put him in the ring with mayweather or RJJ when they were active Mike Perry would get ruined. The resin why Perry would win in real life is that the hands are their most prized possession for mayweather and RJJ so they would sacrifice striking for defensive positioning during a fight with someone like Perry. If you went to RJJ and Perry when both active pros and said “fight till the death” then RJJ and mayweather would literally murder Perry unless grappling and not boxing

  4. 4 KG of force is the difference? That’s a big difference, how’s that a small difference? Imagine a 10# dumbbell fall on your toe compared to a 20# dumbbell. There’s definitely a big difference

  5. What a stupid test, what makes them think that he's accurately punching each time with the same force?? If the results are based on his actual punch then such measurements are not accurate.
