Since Krav Maga (KM) has taken on the mass marketing strategy of Tae Bo it claims to incorporate boxing or is boxing oriented. I first learned of KM about 15 to 20 years ago prior to the current mass marketing/McDojo business model now used by KM. At that time KM was described as using elbows and open hand strikes. The open hand strikes were used as most military and law enforcement organizations promoted this approach so combatants would not break a hand in an altercation.
Now KM uses boxing. Does this make sense? I would think a palm to the nose or chin beats a fist. Especially in a quick altercation that requires blunt trauma to end it quickly.
Any thoughts on this issue? Thanks in advance.

PS I ask the question not to be troll like but because there are a couple of KM schools in Boston that I want to check out.
