Not lacking simplicity, but lacking clarity. They are not the same motherfucking thing.
English degrees from the Hood gives you street smarts. That **** is progressive and will save your life more often than one from a conventional institution. For reals, ************....except English degrees from the Hood. Amirite?
You ain't heard, son? I'm the motherfucking Question? I spent an entire year on forums ending all of my statements with said punctuation mark? Just to make ************ hear an upward inflection when they read my posts? I thought it was pretty fucking cool? (Like having sex with a block of ice?) Do you think it's cool. You know you think it's cool? Well do you.The only ************ being confused here is the one who can't decide between statement-syntax and question-mark...but that's okay: it's expected.
The injuries of concern are they to the C-spine, or concussion style traumatic brain injury? Or both? The head on hits cause rotational trauma which is the real culprit? I imagine fixing the helmet to the motherfucking shoulder pads would **** with lateral vision, which creates a whole host of other problems.Short of somehow bolting the helmet into position onto the shoulder-pads so that no cervical torsion or similar injury occurs, one cannot protect the neck from those potentially life-changing injuries. Studying those vids, way back then, we saw the obvious: helmeted players felt they could hit (head-to-head among other types of collision), harder than rugby players because the domes desensitized the surface areas (face, scalp and so on) of the heads.
Interesting. How is this effect of protection making you feel like you can slam harder (you know, like when you use condoms with anaesthetic in them?) transferred to MMA, where the gloves give you ~6oz less protection?
This meant that, if the spine was not perfectly aligned at time of impact (that's just for the head-to-head; other impacts have their own issues), there was increased occurrence of life-changing cervical trauma. In short, the helmets made some American football players feel less vulnerable and they hit harder than they might without domes. The neck, unprotected against torsion injury in such cases, took the brunt of the impacts with the results we see far too often in the sport today. Ice-hockey has a similar problem.
I ain't never heard that ****. As far as I know, I made that **** up. Which is why I'm the motherfucking boss.How very original. Try to use material that hasn't been recycled for years, okay, Malvina-boy?.
You mean like 150? The **** does liquor have to do with this?Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.
It's on the official documents and ****. I don't mind....it isn't---but we both knew that already...
The **** is an anglophone? Some kind of musician? I played the xylophone for a little while, but I was never very good at it.
What is it with so-called anglophones who cannot seem to obtain a complete grasp of what is supposed to be their mother tongue? I shouldn't be asking you this, of course, but if you do happen to meet an anglophone whilst on your starry-eyed pilgrimages, would you mind asking?
Although really, I consider myself a Xenophone, because my talk is strange. I have also called my self a coprophone, because my speech is the ****. Nah mean? Fucking brilliant, son.
We speak very good English. Fucking awesome English. We're good at that ****. AND, we don't **** it up as bad as the Americans....like Jamaica "speaks English"? Right. Got it.
And while we're on the proud topic, I have 2 words for you: Usain motherfucking Bolt.
Setting the standard for the mangling of languages? Most impressive. Jamaica has every right to be proud.
Right, but like you said, you are still in danger of somebody slamming into your hand that's on your jaw and knocking you the **** out, son. I like the extra protection of hands on forehead.
I've found that I can slip punches just fine without the hands being all the way up to my forehead, and--rightly or wrongly--I feel like I'm better off in terms of lateral visual range, which gives me more angles to work with. Bit of scarring on the brows, bit of a flatter nose, nothing much more as a result. Also, hands at jaw-level give me a bit more leeway in terms of going to an underhook in case an opponent attempts a single-leg.

In your case, the former is necessary for the latter. Clear?
Save my life from what, exactly?English degrees from the Hood gives you street smarts. That **** is progressive and will save your life more often than one from a conventional institution. For reals, ************.
Ah, yes. I heard a New York linguist referring to this as "uptalk". You can probably look up the term. Apparently, "uptalk" is a principal means by which white girls self-identify. Is there something you'd like to share with us? I mean, it's okay--we're not here to judge...You ain't heard, son? I'm the motherfucking Question? I spent an entire year on forums ending all of my statements with said punctuation mark? Just to make ************ hear an upward inflection when they read my posts?

Which is why I implied that it would never happen. Dispersing force of impact over a wider area, pads help protect against blunt-force trauma, but offer no protection against any form of torsion injury. Also, domes add weight to the head, increasing the load on the neck in such cases as a body-to-body impact hit: the extra mass attached to the head causes it to snap around on the neck, as a result of such a hit, even more forcefully than it would otherwise.The injuries of concern are they to the C-spine, or concussion style traumatic brain injury? Or both? The head on hits cause rotational trauma which is the real culprit? I imagine fixing the helmet to the motherfucking shoulder pads would **** with lateral vision, which creates a whole host of other problems.
At the same time, however, the blunt-force-attenuating effects of padding give players a general impression of being less vulnerable, rather than just being less vulnerable to blunt-force trauma. This, despite the fact that they are at least as vulnerable to deep-tissue and torsion injuries as unpadded contact-sport participants. This can make them less careful with their hits.
You've doubtless seen the different nature of the punches thrown in MMA versus those thrown in, say, boxing. How much of this is due to gear and how much is due to the more generalist training regimen of an MMA fighter (versus the more specialized training regimen of a boxer) is another matter.Interesting. How is this effect of protection making you feel like you can slam harder transferred to MMA, where the gloves give you ~6oz less protection?
No doubt you also wrote Abbott and Costello's Who's On First script as well. "Your" Falk-U. routine is about as original as that. You are indeed the motherfucking boss.I ain't never heard that ****. As far as I know, I made that **** up. Which is why I'm the motherfucking boss.
Please, show a little national pride: go at least 200 and call it Wray & Nephew. Thanks in advance.You mean like 150? The **** does liquor have to do with this?
Allow me a moment to contain my surprise.The **** is an anglophone? Some kind of musician? I played the xylophone for a little while, but I was never very good at it.
Here we go again. Once again, Q, it's "xenophobe". You'll never get into that much-sought-after (by you) position in your local white-supremacist group if you insist on sounding all greek-philo to your fellow-white-sheeters. It just won't wash. Capiche?Although really, I consider myself a Xenophone, because my talk is strange. I have also called my self a coprophone, because my speech is the ****.
Meanwhile--and yes, we've been over this as well--in your case, it's either "coprophile" or "coprophage" (or, in your specific case, both). Looks like we'll just have to keep going over this until you get it right.
So...not fucking English up as much as the Americans means you speak good English? That's like saying you run better than a dead person so you're marathon-grade.We speak very good English...we don't **** it up as bad as the Americans.
...I have no doubt you figure prominently in Pride events worldwide. We won't let your aforementioned white-sheet brethren know until you're ready to go public, okay?And while we're on the proud topic...
I have two words for you, courtesy Monty Python: "Run away!"I have 2 words for you: Usain motherfucking Bolt.
Since most of my striking matches have been KK in Japan (headhunting allowed, but bareknuckle) or Daido-Juku (same country, more headhunting, sometimes with minimal hand protection), I've been happy with knuckles-to-cheekbones and chin-down to both protect the sweet spot and align my spine properly.Right, but like you said, you are still in danger of somebody slamming into your hand that's on your jaw and knocking you the **** out, son. I like the extra protection of hands on forehead.
With the above-mentioned kind of hand protection (if any) opponents slamming fists into the top of my head (pretty much the only above-the-neck-target they have) have done little more than break some of my skin while more often breaking their hands.
That's not me claiming to be all tough and ****. It's just that, in a collision between an unprotected hand and the top of a human head supported by a properly-aligned spine, the relatively-small bones of the hand will break first.
Would that be the case with the greater protection afforded the striker via gloves and wraps? Dunno. Maybe not.
Question: do you regard gloves and wraps to be PEDs (Performance-Enhancing Devices)? I do not speak of "cheating" here, since both participants would be similarly-equipped. However, if a puncher can bang harder with protected hands supported by stabilized wrists, does that not equal PEDs? Just curious. -

Simple.
Not your life, son. Saves the lives of motherfuckers out here on these streets. Nah mean. Motherfucking Husslaz and ****. You ain't out here on these streets, so you ain't know.Save my life from what, exactly?
Uptalk? Ain't that the name of a telecom company? And yes, I do identify white girls from time to time. I like to identify them tits, the knockers, the ta-tas, the chest cannons. Nah I'm sayin? **** yeah!, son!Ah, yes. I heard a New York linguist referring to this as "uptalk". You can probably look up the term. Apparently, "uptalk" is a principal means by which white girls self-identify. Is there something you'd like to share with us? I mean, it's okay--we're not here to judge...
I considered this at one point, and this is what I thought would be the major thing leading to the high preponderance of spinal injuries in the sport. That fucking helmet turns the head into a end of pendulum, fucking swinging about the neck.Which is why I implied that it would never happen. Dispersing force of impact over a wider area, pads help protect against blunt-force trauma, but offer no protection against any form of torsion injury. Also, domes add weight to the head, increasing the load on the neck in such cases as a body-to-body impact hit: the extra mass attached to the head causes it to snap around on the neck, as a result of such a hit, even more forcefully than it would otherwise.

This, despite the fact that they are at least as vulnerable to deep-tissue and torsion injuries as unpadded contact-sport participants. This can make them less careful with their hits.
My point was that I think that **** is all about training and technique. When motherfuckers in MMA swing for the fences they are clearly not giving a **** about their hands. I've competed in both boxing and MMA, albeit breifly, and when I swing, I fucking swing. My main concern wouldn't be the fist, but the wrist. And when that **** is properly aligned one aims to go through motherfuckers.You've doubtless seen the different nature of the punches thrown in MMA versus those thrown in, say, boxing. How much of this is due to gear and how much is due to the more generalist training regimen of an MMA fighter (versus the more specialized training regimen of a boxer) is another matter.
Betta recongnize my status, mayne. I run **** (no, not diarrhoea). Abbott and Costello used to call me Uncle Q. We exchanged material, they wrote some **** for me. You know, for Q. For Q, son, for Q.No doubt you also wrote Abbott and Costello's Who's On First script as well. "Your" Falk-U. routine is about as original as that. You are indeed the motherfucking boss.
Interestingly the highest J. Wray and Nephew go up to is 63%, which is nowhere near 200 proof. The only time I ever had 200 proof was from my the lab. You ever had 200, son? That's chemically purified 100% alcohol, son. That's what we drink in the hood.Please, show a little national pride: go at least 200 and call it Wray & Nephew. Thanks in advance.
Perhaps your Francophonicity is stopping you from keeping up with neologisticness and my flexible linguistic skills (and no, I don't mean my skill in performing oral sex on babes, although I'm pretty good at that **** too).Here we go again. Once again, Q, it's "xenophobe". You'll never get into that much-sought-after (by you) position in your local white-supremacist group if you insist on sounding all greek-philo to your fellow-white-sheeters. It just won't wash.

************ please, I don't file, because I'm no clerk, and I'm no fag, or phag or whatever (I like the honeys). You should also know that I commit coprocide, because I be killin' that ****.Meanwhile--and yes, we've been over this as well--in your case, it's either "coprophile" or "coprophage" (or, in your specific case, both).

At least I'm not French.So...not fucking English up as much as the Americans means you speak good English? That's like saying you run better than a dead person so you're marathon-grade.
Pride? Dude, Pride went out years ago. It's all about the UFC now. And yes, I'm trying to get into that cage (no bondage)....I have no doubt you figure prominently in Pride events worldwide. We won't let your aforementioned white-sheet brethren know until you're ready to go public, okay?
****. Lucky you. I masturbate to Daido Juku videos sometimes. Since when does Kyokushin allow head punching? And in DJ, don't you use helmets with face protection? Face protection is as good as hand protection when the helmet is soft.Since most of my striking matches have been KK in Japan (headhunting allowed, but bareknuckle) or Daido-Juku (same country, more headhunting, sometimes with minimal hand protection), I've been happy with knuckles-to-cheekbones and chin-down to both protect the sweet spot and align my spine properly.
Also, you need to remember that people trained in KK or DJ will not be at good at putting hard, fast punches together as boxers. Not to say you're a ***** or whatever, but sometimes **** gets extra real in boxing ring.
Definitely. No argument there.With the above-mentioned kind of hand protection (if any) opponents slamming fists into the top of my head (pretty much the only above-the-neck-target they have) have done little more than break some of my skin while more often breaking their hands.
Damn right, because everyone knows you're a *****.That's not me claiming to be all tough and ****. It's just that, in a collision between an unprotected hand and the top of a human head supported by a properly-aligned spine, the relatively-small bones of the hand will break first.
But boxers have fractured their hands with 10oz gloves as well, sometimes that **** just happens.
Would that be the case with the greater protection afforded the striker via gloves and wraps? Dunno. Maybe not.
[/quote]
Likely not, but gloves still mean you have to keep your wrist straight and not hit hard places too often.
I sure as hell think so. This is going to be an even more important discussion in the future when technology gets further and further ahead. They keep making lighter football boots that let motherfuckers run faster and kick harder. Perhaps the same will happen with gloves, but then again glove technology hasn't changed too much in the last 50 or so years.Question: do you regard gloves and wraps to be PEDs (Performance-Enhancing Devices)? I do not speak of "cheating" here, since both participants would be similarly-equipped. However, if a puncher can bang harder with protected hands supported by stabilized wrists, does that not equal PEDs? Just curious.
But here is something interesting about padding though. In 1983 there was a famous fight in which Panama Lewis, the coach of Luis Resto removed much of the padding from Resto's gloves. In this fight, he beat the **** out of Billy Collins and tore his iris causing him to never box again. Resto never suffered any hand injuries. And he was wailing just as hard. (Now there is some dubious **** about him covering his handwraps in plaster of paris, but that aside...) Less padding didn't result in less wailing on this occasion. And what of the facial fractures and eye injuries that will definitely be more common in barenkuclee?

Been keepin' da peace in da clubzz likely longer than you've been anything but a diseased cumdrop, boy.
(****, why would anybody want to communicate even remotely like that? Is there some badge-of-honour thing involved in coming across like a blaxpolitation-film retard?)
Well, at least you know what "self-identify" means. One day, inshallah, you'll be able to afford the total-transformation-to-white-girl procedure. Worked for the King of Pop--and you won't even need any surgery.And yes, I do self-identify white girls from time to time. I like to identify them tits on my paltry-poutry "chest"
You're not allowed to think this: it would mean we actually agree on something. We both agree that can't be allowed to occur.I considered this at one point, and this is what I thought would be the major thing leading to the high preponderance of spinal injuries in the sport. That fucking helmet turns the head into a end of pendulum, fucking swinging about the neck.
Some members of an NFL team came by the club a year or so ago, and I discussed this with one of them. He said that they know what the risks are, even with pads, but are made to feel obliged to go harder than they really want by management for just that reason: "You get all these millions, so go get your neck broken; that's what the fans want to see".Also makes the sport far more entertaining for bloodthirsty Americans.
Just like proper spinal alignment is necessary to inflict (and survive relatively intact) an NFL head-to-head hit, wraps in boxing aid in keeping the wrists more stable for more penetrating impact through the target, as opposed to unsupported wrists. This you, of course, will already know. It also aids in mitigating effects of a hit in cases where the wrist is not 100%-perfectly aligned (which might happen in the case of an opponent with good head-movement).My point was that I think that **** is all about training and technique. When motherfuckers in MMA swing for the fences they are clearly not giving a **** about their hands. I've competed in both boxing and MMA, albeit breifly, and when I swing, I fucking swing. My main concern wouldn't be the fist, but the wrist. And when that **** is properly aligned one aims to go through motherfuckers.
No worries there. Your *ahem* status is secure. Nobody else would ever want--er, be able to attain such levels of purity. Pure is one thing you most definitely are.Betta recongnize my status, mayne.
True, they did refer to you as "uncle Q"...except when the police and childrens'-aid were anywhere nearby. Be thankful: it's the only reason you are still allowed contact with your family.I run **** (no, not diarrhoea). Abbott and Costello used to call me Uncle Q.
There's such a thing as 200 proof dog-semen? Well ****, you learn something new every day...Interestingly the highest J. Wray and Nephew go up to is 63%, which is nowhere near 200 proof. The only time I ever had 200 proof was from my lab.
It's what we in Normandy called "trail mix".You ever had 200, son?
It might have been nice of yours to go on the wagon when she had you in the oven. Oh well, too late now.That's chemically purified 100% alcohol, son. That's what our mommas drink in the hood.
You might want to stop posting your "Uncle-Q" stuff. Your relatives can still get restraining orders.Perhaps your Francophonicity is stopping you from keeping up with neologisticness and my flexible linguistic skills (and no, I don't mean my skill in performing oral sex on babies, although I'm pretty good at that **** too).
If it were self-evident, denials wouldn't be necessary. Not to worry: nobody sees your down-low, nobody tells. Besides "honey" from labs doesn't count, 200 proof or otherwise....I'm no fag, or phag or whatever (I like the honeys).
I thought you were the ****. Oh, that's right: you're aiming high--to be the **** you want to kill. Just don't leave a mess, okay?You should also know that I commit coprocide, because I be killin' that ****.
No, but receptive-greek sort-of makes you European.At least I'm not French.
Somebody called "DW" called. Wants to know if you swallow.Pride? Dude, Pride went out years ago. It's all about the UFC now. And yes, I'm trying to get into that cage (no bondage).
There was a time before the no-headhunting rule came in, and some KK orgs are returning to inclusion of it in the ruleset. This is what I'm told at any rate. Been out of that scene for a while.****. Lucky you. I masturbate to Daido Juku videos sometimes. Since when does Kyokushin allow head punching?
When I was in DJ, the fucking things fogged up within 30 seconds. Apparently, they're better now. The only protection they afforded was against surface-damage (when you're in Japan, going to work all marked up is a no-no). Like other helmets, however, they do not protect against the sudden head-displacement resulting in a KO (which is why you see KOs in DJ vids), because the neck is not stabilized by the gear.And in DJ, don't you use helmets with face protection? Face protection is as good as hand protection when the helmet is soft.
The ruleset trained for favours more a more generalist approach to fighting. If a non-ground-trained boxer steps into a DJ bout with me, it would get "extra real" in a different way. Different rulesets, that's all.Also, you need to remember that people trained in KK or DJ will not be at good at putting hard, fast punches together as boxers. Not to say you're a ***** or whatever, but sometimes **** gets extra real in boxing ring.
No ****, really? I was referring to relative frequency of such occurrences, not to some kind of 100% absolute lack of variation in outcome.But boxers have fractured their hands with 10oz gloves as well, sometimes that **** just happens.
Agreed. Protection does not reduce risk 100%. Nobody said or implied that it did...just that they afforded some risk-reduction.Likely not, but gloves still mean you have to keep your wrist straight and not hit hard places too often.
I do club, remember? I see that stupid ****--and the resulting injuries--all the time (and sometimes the assailants involved didn't even have any training). However, busted hands are also common as **** when they collide with heads. Either way, I call it "natural selection".But here is something interesting about padding though. In 1983 there was a famous fight in which Panama Lewis, the coach of Luis Resto removed much of the padding from Resto's gloves. In this fight, he beat the **** out of Billy Collins and tore his iris causing him to never box again. Resto never suffered any hand injuries. And he was wailing just as hard.

I assume that you picked these two images specifically because they are my two favorite boxers from two opposite era's. Temporal bookends of pugilistic perfection.
For John L. I think the drinking and whoring lifestyle probably did more to punish him than the 75 round boxing matches.
