Right. I guess I shouldn't have said anything was overcome. It was meant to be an example of people using strikes successfully as opposed to grappling in fights w/o gloves.

I wonder if in a no gloved mma comp. they would have to rule out a cupped hand slapping over someones ear? That's generally a pretty good way to put someone in a bad spot and could cause some damage...

I like the gloves. Being able to strike hard w/o much worry adds a lot of excitement to the fight imo.
