I've had a little over 20 backyard boxing matches against 6 opponents. We go 3 one minute rounds with 12 oz gloves, no hand wraps, no mouthpiece, no headgear. Only been dropped once, by a body shot and that was when I was first learnin how to box. Outta the 20 fights I've lost twice and had probably 3 or 4 draws. Got a couple stoppages, but only a couple. It's hard to KO or drop somebody thats your size or bigger in such a short time with 12 oz gloves. Used handwraps once and thats a fukin world of differnce compared to not usin em. Feels like you gettin hit with rock, because the fist and wrist are so much tighter and harder. Used headgear that time too, but that was the only time I've used the headgear. Backyard boxing is fun and anyone can do it, so I suggest you guys who've never fought try it least once or twice.
