headgear for back of head

[margaret thatcher]

saw someone mention this , commenting on a ko where the guy smashed the back of his head on the canvas, that's often/usually how the guys die on the steets too

and shots to the back of the head are illegal too


could there be a way for boxers to wear a protector or headgear that only protects the back of the head

[gilgamesh]

I wouldn't think so. It'd probably have to wrap around the front of your head somehow, and that would be too much of a hinderance.

I personally didn't even enjoy Amateur Boxing at all because I hate wearing headgear. I would only want to fight without it.

They're on the top of the head, and I would assume they're a tight fit.

[margaret thatcher]

is the top of the head a legal area?

what about something like this

I think the top of the head is legal actually. I've seen quite a few guys knocked down as a result of a shot to the top of the head.

kippah

It's a very interesting idea, in my opinion. However, I can't see it happening except as an experiment, maybe.

[mickey1975]

It’s bollocks, and isn’t happening.

[margaret thatcher]

oh, of course it wont happen, cuz it would look goofy and we cant have that, boxers have to look like tattoo covered bad asses who walk heavy instead of looking like fannies, but could it be beneficial for the head?

i mean these dudes wear protection on their hands, on their balls/cock/lower stomach, they use mouthguards, etc.. so theyre all for protection (as long as it's covered up). the back of the head just as important though

my gawd some of these guys smashing the back of their heads is brutal

Staples.

[margaret thatcher]

is that it?

i've wondered. even the bald dudes have it staying on

[Londonirish]

Not everyone gets Ko'd and hit the back of the head off the canvas, im sure it would be the front of the head that would need it, including the face and Ribs. Maybe it would be easier to make Boxing a Non-Contact Sport

Headgear for the back of the Head

[margaret thatcher]

look, i know it would make everyone look like total fannies, and that for that reason it wouldnt get picked up

but could it improve safety ?

I stand corrected then Those hats look very similar to the type that some Muslims wear.
