Anyone into unlicensed boxing, as glamourised by Snatch?
Is there a hip term for it?

I posted about this in the sports forum; the Dan Rooney video is a classic of its kind. An acquired taste no doubt ...

Gee, I've been a fan of boxing all my life, and then I started liking ultimate fighting stuff, and then tried to get more mean in my tastes and attended one underground, free style, no gloves, bets crossed fights in Northern Mexico.
When I saw bones broken, eyes lost, and men crippled for the amusement and profit of a bunch of animals (us), I decided I would stick to the more civilized boxing.
Then again, maybe I am a softy and hate human suffering.
