Have at you rapscallion! Fisticuffs ey? I'll give you a bunch of fives you slag! Ok, that went from old English gent to EastEnders Phil Mitchell pretty quick, but you get the idea. Thought to originate back in ancient Greece, bare-knuckle boxing is the Ronseal of prize fighting - in that it does what it says on the tin. Two blokes fight with bare knuckles until one is knocked out, or the rounds end with judges scoring a winner. This is very different to a street fight however, where essentially you can smack your opponent with a traffic cone WWE style. The bare-knuckle bout adds a certain air of gentrified civility to proceedings...with no ramifications at all...none...especially not brain dama-what? Now, where and who am I?
