[quote=King Kabuki]Actually it's been pretty much confirmed that wearing boxing gloves generates more damage to the opponent for numerous reasons. One being that the person doing the punching has more leave to use greater amounts of force without maximum possibility of breaking the hand. Another is that there is added weight when a boxing glove is worn which adds to the maximum amount of force and pressure making contact with the body.

Boxing gloves appear cause more brain damage because you don't get knocked out as easy (i.e. you can maintain getting hit in the head for a many rounds). MMA gloves cause easier knockouts, MMA training has more concussions then boxing training (i have journal stats if you want me to post it).

So we can conclude that if you boxed the same amount of rounds with boxing gloves as you did MMA gloves....mma gloves would cause more brain damage.
