Beards on Boxers

I thought the opposing side could request the beard get chopped. I don't think it's much of an advantage. Would be like a cyclist shaving legs to go faster or something like that. A REAL advantage is having a giant bundle of dense hair taped up behind your head a la Bermaine Stiverne to prevent rabbit punches.

 

Relying on a beard to protect you is like making muscles by pumping feathers.

 

Antonio Margarito had a thick goatee and I think Roach said he wanted it shaved off or trimmed. Pac said leave it as he wanted a target.

 

So if Amir Khan had a Charles Darwin beard he'd be unbeatable

Fulton fights with a big ass beard. Combined with sweat and gobs of Vaseline, I can see how it can become something off a cushion against chin shots. Inoue's still gonna beat this boy like he stole something, though.

 

Makes no difference.

 

Dirrell needed a bigger beard

 

He should make a comeback with stiverne's bun taped over his face

 

It sure as hell didn't help Curtis Stevens against David Lemieux.

 

Beards are fine on the men but on the women not so much.

 

I remember that lame Jim Lampley stating that in commentary,

He had the voice but just needed to cut down his Bias which unfortunately he never could do all the way till HBO went down under.

 

I'm sure there is a rule about beard length or thickness, but I haven't heard of it being enforced in a while.
