The chips may also be used in Haymon's PBC fights in future.

Yep, electronics usually doesn't like to be hit.

Preferable to fish, IMO.

Should fighters be given the chance to reenergise mid-fight by being fed chips via their gloves? Not sure.

How would these chips know when the blow is actually a scoring blow? What if the blows land on gloves or on the arms, are they counted as points? I think it's not a bad idea as a replacement for compubox but if it is inaccurate then it shouldn't be used.

Brilliant idea! They should put them in their boots aswell be interesting to see how far they have travelled and which direction they favour in a fight? I'm sure the technology is there to do this? Be good to put into a training programme somehow?

Sounds good til someone does some Margarito sh!t & loads his gloves up with a bunch of dime sized chips.
