    I agree with that.

    Ideal format would be:

    fully no gloves or wraps, emulating the boxing techniques of the turn of the century bare-knuckle brawlers, with more emphasis on body shots compared to head shots, and not signing middle aged fighters who have already taken years of head damage in their previous sports.

    Ken Shamrock tried real bareknuckle with his ValorBk promotion but it failed both times which is a shame.

    If knock downs are “violent” to you, fights sports might not be for you…

    Now I’m curious, what else is “violent” to you, wind blowing too hard?
