Why come no one's ever tried a circular ring?
how are the ropes going to curve?
>>20835422It'll be easier for them to curve as it's a circular ring.
>>20835422some MMA companies use a circular octogon
>>20835471Those aren't ropes retard
>>20835471aew just used a circular cage a few weeks ago. it's not a ring though.
>>20835411cause pi or something
They should try a circular ring with no ropes.You get irish whipped, you fall out of the ring and hurt yourself. Real game changer.
>>20835411You could technically curve the rope using either a umpteen ring posts to create dense multiple angle perimeter that essentially is a ring but the ropes would have virtually no give. TNA's old ring was known for having less give in the ropes too. Alternatively you could create compensation system that with using a flexible circular material but I doubt that would be safe because of the way it rebounds when running ropes, the force would be into a random angle instead of a predictable angle
>>20835702When I was a kid when I'd have a "Death Match" I'd remove the ropes. Irish whips became deadly.Boiler Room match? Flip the toy ring upside down.
Six-sided ring is as round as it gets. You need cornbuckles or the ropes don't function.But apparently running the ropes was demanding anyway with the amount of taut they needed to be. No idea if a five-sided ring might've been better.
*blocks your path*
>>20835411You have a six sided ring in your living room?
>>20835471That's because The Octagon is trademarked.
>>20835411Sumo nigga
>>20835411How come no one has tried a triangular ring?
>>20835411they do but it's squared
>>20836803How the fuck do you trademark a shape
>>20835496true not yellowy enough
>>20835411https://www.weirduniverse.net/blog/comments/circular_boxing_ringsthey tried it in 1976
>>20835411Would be too dimes, wrestling fans dont deserve it.

>>20836068>>20836785Remember they somehow got Metallica to play at the half time show of that event?Absolute money laundering front.
>>20835422You make them out of a strong yet stretchy material. But not actual rope.
>>20835422make this thing with the ropes
>>20835471>circular octogon
>>20836900Ok now let’s see them run against the ropes or do moves off the turnbuckle
>>20835471How, can you have a "circular octagon"?Isn't that a contradiction, like saying something is a square triangle?...lol.
>>20835471A cage is not a ring...
>>20838102A square isn't a ring, either.
Every X division match should have cables above the ring for more acrobatic spots.
>>20838037or a squared circle even.......
>>20837857>30 ring posts>60 Individual ropesthis thing is hurting my brain trying to comprehend it
>>20835411If it was a circle it wouldn't be a ring anymore dumbass.
>>20841705Anon, what shape is a ring you place on your finger?
>>20837857At that point you have more cornbuckles than ropes. Might as well call it a net rather than a ring.
