Have people seen these, seems to be becoming a bit of a thing on social media, Ryan Garcia done a few of these but the other person would wear a padded jacket, now it seems people just stand in a line and take turns punching each other as hard as they can until one person is left standing.

In my younger days I perfected the one inch punch.
These body punching wetbags wouldn't last five minutes with me. Well at least if they stood real close to me they wouldn't
Perhaps the most under rated offensive strike in history is the one inch punch.
