Every so often I hear commentators debate if it’s fair that a fighter has a beard because beards provide cushion. Apparently some states don’t even allow them. This is the stupidest debate in boxing. It must be made by people that can’t grow beards. Beards provide protection from maybe food on your chin, but they provide 0 protection from a fist punching it.
KOs are caused by the head rotating and the brain shaking in the skull. The beard does nothing to stop either. Please don’t believe beards provide any protection in boxing, because that’s sooooo stupid.
