Is brain damage common in this sport?

I know this sport isnt like extremely well known, so there’s probably not many studies about it, but i was wondering if things like CTE are common for people who compete.
I recently retired from competing in amateur boxing because i was tired of getting hit in the head all the time.
I know that you do get hit in the head in buhurt often but it seems like you have so much protection plus the inside of the helmet is padded (i think?).
I did a few trial lessons of this sport with a local team and absolutely loved it, but I honestly just want to keep my noggin as safe as possible…
Thanks!
