ALways crazy to me how one kick or punch can knock someone out out of nowhere but taking multiple undefended punches and kicks rarely does and ends up being a TKO win.

Is it like ninjas where the power of each is inversely proportional to how many strikes there are?

She has one of those dances that's like "This became a tradition 100 years before our people met other humans and learned dancing better than this was possible"

I feel like Shevchenko has made an effort to finish fights more instead of just out pointing guys. although, that might be because she's fighting worse competition

Nothing exciting about that fight but that was ice cold standing up directly over her with her arms up - I want to see the photos of that. Badass.

If you fight the one thing you will notice it's not how often or even how hard you get hit that does damage, but WHERE you get hit.

You'll hear the term 'sit down on [their] punches' which means they're a little heavier in the feet and usually whip the hips a lot more. It's a lot harder to do that repeatedly in quick succession so it's generally a choice between speed and power. That's a big generalisation but you get the idea.

If the first punch of a series that led to a TKO was better, it would be a one-punch KO.

I'm torn on this one. I grew up in the suburb next to windang so I really want Volk to retain his title but as douchey as Ortega is, he's really really good.
