Oh sorry--my boxing coach.
I agree that the nose and chin are acceptable, but there's always that nasty chance of missing--as one of our boxers who also bounces found out....

oh yeah one thing about those old skool bare knuckle boxing matches that went a bazillion rounds.......the round ended when one boxer went down, so that was a common defensive tactic when getting pummeled, or so I've read..........

No-one ever said that strikes not found in boxing are not effective.
On the other hand, plenty of people have said that boxing is ineffective without the gloves.
So get out my face twat features.
yeah baby *punches the air*

In these situations it's all in the timing. Too near the front of the line and you actually have to fight, too near the back and you're punching at soggy bone.

Wait...so two questions...
1. What part of their hands DO boxers punch with? 3-knuckle "sun punch" style, or front 2 knuckles like my very FIRST martial arts teacher told me?
2. What part SHOULD we be hitting with bareknuckled?

I'm always told to turn my fist over and hit with the first two knuckles. I personally find I hit harder that way, but to each their own.
You'll find many trainers who say a hook to the body can have the palm facing you, rather than down.
