Why would that help? The skull allready spreads the force out across the head, I don't see what a helmet is going to do other than protect skin and muscle.

My view on boxing is that it looks kinda fun at times. However, it definitely has the potential for serious brain damage/death. It seems like it attracts a disproportionate amount of dickheads that enjoy it (mma viewing as well). I get more enjoyment damaging my brain with drugs.

It pads the head and causes the force to be applied at a slowed rate compared to no helmet.

why wear helmets on motorcycles, the skull already spreads the force out across the head, I don't see what a helmet is going to do other than protect skin and muscle.

I don'tknow about you guys but I think it'd feel pretty fucking cool to kill a guy from punching him in the head. I feel bad for the guys family though.

Yeah but when you're in a fight with someone worried you might lose, and then all of a sudden you fuckin get him right in the head and he drops to the ground and dies. Fuck that'd be a rush, and you have no worries about going to jail or any bullshit like that.

Why would that help? The skull allready spreads the force out across the head, I don't see what a helmet is going to do other than protect skin and muscle.
It pads the head and causes the force to be applied at a slowed rate compared to no helmet.
How much slower? I doubt it lowers the power of the punch much given that the glove is allready padded. The headgear they have is like what, an inch? That's not going to reduce the acceleration much I wouldn't think.

It also protects against skull fractures, which isn't the issue in boxing. The relevant comparison is how a motorcycle helmet protects against concussions, and I doubt its very much due to the padding. A motorcycle helmet is also hard and thus does a good job of distributing the force across the skull. Boxing headgear is not hard and doesn't do a good job of this.

i feel the need to point out that the last two punches where behind the ear, which is an 'illegal' punch, and he should have had a warning or even had a point taken away. the fight was not clean, the knockout punches were illegal, he should not be awarded the win.
boxing is a awesome, noble sport with lots of history and tradition. unfortunately, one of those traditions is corruption.
now, how do we make sports safer? we don't. these people make a lot of money doing something very dangerous, they know the risks, and except them.
i would step in the ring with Manny for a couple million, knowing he would most likely kill me. the benefits are worth the risk.
ever have sex with out a condom? are the benefits worth the risk?

I know he was joking but...
He didn't say boxing headgear, he said a helmet. You also were talking about a helmet.

There was another famous fight where a boxer from South Korea was killed.
Duk-Koo-Kim died the next day.
Wladimir Klitschko, the reigning heavy weight is currently kicking some serious ass and has been for quite a while.

Is MMA more "dangerous" then boxing? Maybe, maybe not. The shame in all of this is that it would be pretty easy to start answering these questions IMO.
We already know MMA is safer. In MMA when you get a concussion the fight is over. In boxing you get multiple opportunities to stand back up, and get another concussion.
Repetitive concussions are VERY bad for your brain. Look at the number of annual deaths. The numbers speak for themselves.
