Sure, you can hit hard.... BUT Can you take a hit?

[Djimbe]

stay in the house for gods sake

Its what growing up working as a Musician AND being huge will get you , I suppose .

Only a COUPLE of those times had I even Interactesd with the person assaulting me beforehand ! Its usually just some drunken midget trying to "Scale The Man-Mountain" !

 

[Djimbe]

Never been knocked out, but I've come close.

I'll echo what others have said:

Body shots take more out of a guy than head shots. They seem to stick around and remind you of what just happened.

I have to say that this depends on the thicknbess of your abdominal wall . If youre obsessed woth your Abs , I can see this being an Issue , but if youve got the "gut" of a powerlifter you stop feeling that mess after a while ,and they shake off more like regular hits .

yah being big makes you a target
kind of like in highschool
I wasn't that big till late middleschool or early highschool
but all through school if someone got the notion that you were tough or could fight skillfully (and one punch often made it appear you were skillful cus bullies are mostly just cowards) and everybody wanted to prove themselves, on you : o (
teachers used to sit me next to bullies and wait
bastards

I have a gut and I'm good on bodyshots
straight ones anyway
now a shot to my ribs
I can't make any promises

When you get hit good in the face, you get that pain you can taste. That is when fight or flight kicks in. You can see it when the guy either gets real intense or cowers and covers his head. KO'ing someone requires you to hit them with either tremendous force or hit them at the right angle to the head. A good upper cut or cross to the side of the chin can KO anyone.

The champion fighters are champions, not just becasue they can take a shot, but mainly because they AVOID/ABSORB those shots better.

 

[Kane Fan]

my cross is iffy
I hope a good hook to the chin puts people down as often : o )

after last night I learned I can take three shots to the face,one I believe broke my nose and one knocking me out for a second on my feet,and still stand up and finish the fight with me coming out better then the other guy

I've taken some pretty serious kicks to the head and was fine. Maybe not my memory though
