British university students are risking their lives to take part in unlicensed boxing fight nights.

In a craze that is sweeping university students across the nation, young men are willingly stepping into a boxing ring to fight each other in front of glamorous women and cheering crowds.

Footage from a recent bout in warehouse in Cardiff shows a man, Dan 'The Duster Davis', strut into the arena to bass heavy beats.

Following him is his entourage as smoke machines and plumes of gold sparkles illuminate their entrance.

I do not see nothing wrong with this as long as there are professional overseeing it. The participants wear head gear. UK version of Fight Club. Good to see these young men doing manly things. The co-eds seems to be enjoying it too.

First rule of unlicensed boxing events: Don’t talk about unlicensed boxing events.

Sounds like fun to me.

ANYTHING that doesn’t give tax money to the government just can’t be a good thing. That’s the ONLY beef the governing authorities might have with it.

“British university students are risking their lives....”

The most dangerous part of this is the trip to the place to be used in the car. In the UK for the year ending 2018, they had over 1750 deaths on the roadways. Needs to be put in perspective.

I watched a reality dating show on PBS but in this one the singles had to dress up, like like, and follow the courtship rules of the Regency period. One of the episodes recreated an illegal boxing match. Of course this was before the Marquis of Queensbury rules so the “boxing” was much more brutal. But all the spectators were having a great time.

'It’s an excuse to get a new dress and do something different. The music’s good and everyone is buzzing. Plus there’s booze. What more could you want?'

Let's see: women, booze, young guys fighting. We call them bars over this side of the pond.

Somebody violated the first rule of Fight Club.

Feminists and soy-boys hate all masculinity. They will try to shut this down.
