Wrong, boxing gloves were designed to protect the hands and to prolong fights, back in the day bare knuckle prize fights ended more often with broken hands than knockouts. The energy is the same hitting your head bare fisted or gloved and because less local injurys occure concussions are more likely with the use of gloves.
