Actually, bare knuckle fighters generally avoid punching the head, as they are likely to break their hand on the skull. They look for vulnerable soft-tissue shots like the kidneys or solar plexus.Sounds like a good way to get Drain Bamage.
you obviously haven't watched
When I fought with or without gloves nothing changed just elbows, knees, feet and head came into play without gloves on.
It is a brutal sport for young men. I enjoy watching it.

I'm not an afficianado, but I have watched some bouts. Bobby Gunn on Youtube is a good fighter to watch. The video isn't great, but it's pretty obvious he isn't making closed-fist strikes to an opponent's head. Every head strike I have seen is either made with the heel of the palm, a forearm or an elbow. Shots aimed at the head are jabs meant to back the opponent off or set up another strike. My uneducated opinion.
this thread is about the BKFC league fights on tv. palm , forearms and elbows aren't allow
the guy from lawton the op was talking about
