    Default Re: Beards and Boxing

    Would anyone have tried to tell Kimbo Slice (RIP) to shave his beard ?



    There's a whole league for people with beards, it's called "women's boxing"

    Beards are for lumberjacks, jihadists and homo's.

    A beard doesn't give you no advantage inside the ring, just an easier target but maybe a beard gets in an opponents eyes. The hair gets in there mouth. It makes it too hard to see cuts.

    You know, that reminds me of something that's bothered me for years. Men have their genitals on the outside, women on the inside. Is that some kind of sick fkng joke, or what ? Men, the warrior of the race, the gender that's supposed to be able to fight to protect the female and young, has their genitals just hanging out there in the open within easy reach of a kick, fist, or even teeth, while women, who don't naturally make war or fight battles, have nothing to worry about other than ordinary bruising and aren't rendered senseless and curled into a puking fetal ball with a single shot to the genitals.

    Banned.... no. Regulated.... yes.


    Ok




    NOT ok





    Interestingly, neither the WBC nor the WBA or WBO address facial hair in their rules and regulations. Maybe in light of this new controversy they should.

    Commission's dictate rules not alphabets (New York have different rules to California and Britain etc). Muslim Danny Williams always had to trim his beard in the UK but under certain US commissions could roll up all grizzly adams.

    I stand corrected, although the alphabet orgs do have their own set of rules.

    However, looked at the NYSAC and NSAC and found nothing on facial hair requirements on either site.

    They should definitely be kept in check and required to be on the shorter side. Not sure it should or could get to the point of commission enforcement they as they have a hard enough time appointing competent officials. Broners and that Irish fella who fought Tevin Farmer are on the ridiculous side. They don't have nearly the affect on a fight, potential cuts etc, as do some braided hairstyles and both need attention.

    The other benefit is - if women had genitals on the outside you wouldn't be a virgin.
