Gloves are not fully intended to protect the opponent, it is to protect the knuckles of the attackers, this is especially true when referencing MMA gloves which are fingerless, the injuries come from hitting bony points such as cranium, or elbow which can shatter a knuckle easily.

As we continue venturing into new markets we are reminded of how our expansion has continued with perservance, learning and most of all patience through the last 25yrs. We understand a legacy mission is a different mindset from a corporate model, taking the easy road wont help us in reaching a global network with long-term loyalty and integrate our purpose into a lifestyle, not a trend. We proceed bravely, knowing it is not easy, but it will be worth it.
