Michael Jai White christened slapping competitions with an ominous title: “Brain Damage Competitions.” White, well-known for his insights into combat sports, made this statement while discussing the rise of bare-knuckle boxing leagues, which he argued may cause less brain trauma than traditional gloved boxing. Supported by his experience training a successful bare-knuckle fighter, White explained that hitting with bare knuckles often results in cuts rather than the deep, brain-rattling impacts gloves can deliver. Nonetheless, he vehemently criticized slapping competitions, emphasizing that participants are exposing their brains to severe, unavoidable damage purely for spectator amusement. Drawing parallels to UFC’s early perception as overly violent, White doubted whether bare-knuckle boxing would achieve widespread legality.
