Debe Brutal Boxing People Hausa
(Nigeria-Chad)
Box called Dembe (Dembe)
engaged young people Africans House (Hausa) in West Africa - mostly Nigeria and
Chad. There is also a more civilized version of the sport called Kokava
(Kokawa), distributed in more than fifteen countries in Africa, but the rules
in it are very different from Debe. If Kokava more like a Japanese sumo
wrestler, the Debe - almost pure boxing with a much more severe rules.
Dembe is considered the most
lethal kind of boxing, which is not surprising, because the lack of soft boxing
gloves greatly increases the possibility of deep knockout, and a kick to the
head may send a second opponent to the hereafter. What often happens? However,
officially declare the number killed in Nigerian rings, no one can, because
their view of the extremely difficult due to the fact that the Debe -
underground boxing fights occur spontaneously chaotic and representatives of
the National Boxing League nobody invites.
All special equipment boxers -
a cord wound on his right fist. They say that some applied on top of the glue
and sprinkle sand or ground glass, but this information is unconfirmed and most
likely taken from Hollywood movies. Although it is possible that amateur fights
somewhere in the outback can actually carried out by tightening the rules. But we are talking about the championship by Debe, which attracts fans of boxing
from all over Nigeria and Chad, and in this tournament at least some, but there
are rules. The winner is awarded a valuable prize of one hundred dollars and a
TV. Sum though small, but when you consider that the average Nigerian family
spends a week on food and a half dollar, a hundred dollars for it - this state.
A few words about the rules of
boxing. Despite the fact that there are no weight classes, selected opponents
yet approximately the same height and weight. However, only in the qualifying
battle in the finals contenders can meet very different for these parameters.
Fight lasts three rounds, it is unlimited in time. Round can stop for three
reasons - at the request of a fighter or his representatives, in the absence of
action in the ring and if the boxer touched his knee, hand or body to the
ground.
The latter is assumed to defeat an opponent. The fighting continued
until complete victory. As I mentioned, you can not only beat his fists, and
feet. Since quite painful blows, the fighters before the meeting consume drugs,
which significantly reduces the pain threshold.
