Actually, boxing gloves allow for numerous concussions to occur prior to an actual victory.
In boxing they also have a 3 knockdown rule which is hilarious. Boxing gloves have so much padding and the boxers are so strong that the padding absorbs the blow but still knocks your head back.
It’s like minor whip lash in a car accident but over and over and over.
MMA or BKFC is truly the sport of administering a concussion before someone else does

You should tell Celine you were happy to pick her. (Cheap Christmas movies could be made about the romance)
