    Margo hid a sharp object there that's why Pac's fist got severely bruised.

    Freddie also said if he ever had a fighter fight Valuev, he would request that they shave him between rounds.

    I don't see the problem with a beard like Tony's. It certainly won't help absorb punches, and I can't imagine them being harmful in clinches etc. In fact, I'd say short stubble-beard is harsher than a longer soft one.

    These guys had pretty thick beards:
