Interesting tidbit: Many more people are killed in boxing than before they started using those gloves.
What are gloves? More mass, more area dispersal and slightly slower transfer of energy, which means the force isn't concentrated and it's too slow to be absorbed into the skin destructively, which means if you get hit in the head your brain is going to smash into your inner skull, and since it's not as intense a feeling you can stay upright for longer.

Bare fights you'll get lots and lots of injuries in the bone and cartilage instead of just bypassing them.
