    To level the playing field a bit?

    Of seen posters argue that it isn't that bad allowing older fighters use trt to compete so why shouldn't super chinny fights be allowed helmets?

    David price,khan,Wilder,jacobs etc should be allowed wear helmets to level the playing field

    Do helmets help with KOs I'm not sure they do,I've alway though that if Khan had a chin he'd be very hard to beat,as it is he follows his script every time,box like a god for four rounds and then walk onto a massive shot and provide KO of the year lol

    Hey maybe Paulie Malignaggi should be allowed to fill his gloves with cement before a fight to level the field?

    Next thing we know the A-side will be putting it into the contract that he gets to wear a helmet ...

    Unless we talking about motorcycle helmets it won't help very much, it might help and save some fights from being stopped by cuts from head butts but that pretty much it... Nothing will help a bad chin...

    Only Amir Khan gets to wear a helmet. Preferably one of those steel German WW1 types with the spike on top.

    Fair's fair.

    All boxers should wear knuckle dusters instead of gloves and the ropes should be made of rusty barbed wire and the boxers have to fight to the death

    I think so yes. I'd like to see a contest in an ice rink with skates on too. I'd also like to see Roy Jones fight a baboon & any boxers who are flat footed get the option of high heels & those boxers prone to running should accept an opponents right to use an Ostrich for extra speed to even it out. Points deducted for pecking though..
