  • Punching Impact Effect of the Karate, Boxing, and the Thumbless Boxing Glove
    PUNCHING IMPACT EFFECT OF THE KARATE, BOXING, AND THE THUMBLESS BOXING GLOVE Paul K. SMITH Department of Physical Education Hun~ Performance Research Laboratory West Chester University West Chester, Pennsylvania 19383 Only limited information is available relative to the impact characteristics of the foam karate glove, the conventional boxing glove, or the recently developed thurnbless boxing glove. It was therefore the main problem in this investigation to determine the COllparative effects on fist velocity and resultant manenturn of a heavy bag when punched by low, intennediate, and high skill level subjects wearing 1) no glove, 2) the foarr. karate glove, 3) the conventional boxing glove, and 4) the thurnbless boxing slove. Considering the contact involved, intentional or otherY'ise, the injury rate is relatively law for karate and boxing when compared to other sports. Yet, serious injuries do occur. The karate injury rate is about 34% with 0.02% being serious and only four deaths have been reported. In boxing, 335 deaths were reported between 1945 and 1979 and considerable negative publicity regarding brain d~age from repeated head impact has emersed recently. Forces sufficient to cause accelerations of 80 g (784 N at about 8 ms contact tirre) have been established as the concussive or knockout level according to the Wayne State Tolerance Curve. Comparable forces applied to the body can cCluse rurtures, contusions, and other injury to organs of the trunk, depending on the impact site. N~~onian principles of momentum and energy conservation using High-Speed Cinenetography and Force­ T:ir.,e apparatus have been errployed by Several researchers to estimate force levels for various types of punches and strikes.

  • On Modernity, Identity and White-Collar Boxing. Phd
    From Rookie to Rocky? On Modernity, Identity and White-Collar Boxing Edward John Wright, BA (Hons), MSc, MA Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. September, 2017 Abstract This thesis is the first sociological examination of white-collar boxing in the UK; a form of the sport particular to late modernity. Given this, the first research question asked is: what is white-collar boxing in this context? Further research questions pertain to social divisions and identity. White- collar boxing originally takes its name from the high social class of its practitioners in the USA, something which is not found in this study. White- collar boxing in and through this research is identified as a practice with a highly misleading title, given that those involved are not primarily from white-collar backgrounds. Rather than signifying the social class of practitioner, white-collar boxing is understood to pertain to a form of the sport in which complete beginners participate in an eight-week boxing course, in order to compete in a publicly-held, full-contact boxing match in a glamorous location in front of a large crowd. It is, thus, a condensed reproduction of the long-term career of the professional boxer, commodified for consumption by others. These courses are understood by those involved to be free in monetary terms, and undertaken to raise money for charity. As is evidenced in this research, neither is straightforwardly the case, and white-collar boxing can, instead, be understood as a philanthrocapitalist arrangement. The study involves ethnographic observation and interviews at a boxing club in the Midlands, as well as public weigh-ins and fight nights, to explore the complex interrelationships amongst class, gender and ethnicity to reveal the negotiation of identity in late modernity.

  • The Boy's Club My Father Was Shot to Death One Night in November on The
    Nick Norwood 765 Davis Abilene, TX 79605 (915) 677-7862 The Boy’s Club My father was shot to death one night in November on the gravel parking lot of a bar outside Nocona, Texas. This was in 1970, when I was ten. The man who shot him was the husband of the woman my father had been seeing. The man went to prison, I guess, but to be honest it was not something we ever talked about. My mother was working as a ticket agent for Braniff at the little airport there in Wichita Falls and she had already written my father off several years before that, had resigned herself to the fact that she would have to raise my brother and me by herself. She rented us a tiny frame house on Hollandale Street, on what she considered to be the right side of Windthorst Road. It was just barely on the right side, the first street in that better neighborhood, and even then ours was the sorriest house on the block, its pale yellow paint peeling away from the wood siding, the front porch a four-by-four concrete pad mounted by two steps. That summer she left us home to take care of ourselves while she was at work. I was in charge since my brother, Timmy, was only seven. It didn’t take long to figure out this was going to be a boring arrangement. Eating pop tarts in front of the television, staring at the walls. One day Jackie and Troy, two friends of mine from down the block, asked me to go with them to the Boy’s Club.
