You say its harder to generate power? I dont know about you but the hardest punchers I have seen have been boxers. But the without gloves thing, thats only true if you dont train without gloves. If I can break a board with my knuckless without hurting them doesnt that stand to reason that I can hit someone with a knuckle punch without breaking my hand?
It again all comes down to the practioner. I am confident that I can use boxing in a street fight without breaking my knuckles or even hurting them. But this has only come from conditioning my knuckles to take added strain.
