For all the punching masterminds out there

[Major Robert Dump]

First of all, if you go back to the thread, you will find that people were arguing that heavier gloves meant more effective punches than lighter gloves. I had made the claim that I always was more damaged by punches with lighter gloves than heavier, and I was called a liar for it.
Also, either padding makes a punch more effective or it doesn't. Which witch is which?



You argued in the other thread that lighter gloves equalled less effective punches. Either recant, or come up with a good defense of those statements.

I argued no such thing, little man. I don't even think I posted in that thread, **except to crack wise.

The padding in MMA gloves is mostly positioned by the knuckles to dissipate the majority of the force.

You punch harder with boxing gloves on. You are lying.

UFC fighters often still break their hands, there's been talk about switching to heavier gloves for years. Boxers still break their hands too, although not as often.

Your head is pretty solid, guys. It can take a hit. The gloves are for the hands.

Were just a few of the posts. Everyone on the thread was either arguing that less padding=less damage or were agreeing with them.

Jesus your an idiot both of those posts just said boxing gloves are to protect fighters from breaking their hands which is why nobody thinks fighters should fight without gloves besides your and your clan of obese trolls.

Actually, they said that lighter gloves=lighter punches.

We should really stop with the personal insults.

I am trolling now, just like I trolled the last thread, in which I levied no arguments, but read and admired with much amusement, as I do this one, but deep down inside I cry when you guys do personal attacks because it is the Frontroom and I am a great guy

I have a feeling your being sarcastic but I agree, I'm getting really tired of all the Vuk bashing. I come here to read interesting discussions, not to watch the same Billy Madison clip over and over again. I thought the .org was supposed to be the "mature" corner of the internet.

I know Vuk's mindset can be frustrating but there's no need to insult his intelligence. If you can't convince him then stop discussing it with him.

Attacking someone for silly stuff they say and do is one thing.
Making fun of how they look or of their family is, in my opinion, out of line and will discourage people from posting pictures of themselves and their family
This in turn makes it harder for me to e-stalk people and hang their photos on the ceiling over my bed

Me too.

This is the Kingdom of Love and Peace. Keep it that way, please.

That is not what I said.

A bare fist requires a different fighting style due to the high risk of injury to the hand. MMA gloves, while smaller, pad the most vunerable parts. Uncovered areas are uncovered to enable grappiling, not harder punches.

Unfortunately for you, it's not a simple sliding scale, please watch a bare knuckle fight and realize how much more defensive it is
