On the topic of TMA, I think drunken-fu would suit me
When I get hammered my middle kick is God-like, perfect pivot, speed, and I can utilize lazy power. Sober well... its good, but not even near the level of drunkenness moo thigh
Because that's what we're talking about. That's what's relevant to this thread. We're talking about two Karateka in a boxing match, or kickboxing match, or mma match, or street fight. In anything but point sparring Machida would steamroll your dad. You're the one who brought Machida and your dad up in the first place. Which brings us to the core of the issue:
Why the fuck are you still hiding behind daddy?

The best way to take a punch is to see it coming.
Some fighters will turn their head or brush off shots at the last minute if they're slick ( and gifted with godlike reflexes ) but that ability is rare. You need to be a professional boxer, someone who has countless hours in the ring, to get that good.
But again, they can do that because they first see the punches coming.

Still ducking the question.
This thread is about how to take a punch, which nobody does better than boxers. But regardless, post a kickboxing video then. Anything.

Wild Turkey 101 tends to sneak up on you so be ready for that. One minute you're good, the next thing you know you can't find your way to the washroom.
Good stuff though, full of flavours yet surprisingly smooth.

Nice haha. I'll definitely try it !
Lol yea the first time I had it I was just casually drinking with my cousin who I hadn't seen in a few months and we both woke up wasted the next morning. Like, too drunk to drive to work. It sneaks up on you because you drink it like a regular whisky and it goes down smooth.

Keep ur chin down, limit ur chin getting hit, and accepting the fact that u will take hard punches is the best way to lessen impact. Also a lot of self belief. I've never been hurt from a punch to the head & I believe it is because I consider taking a big punch "going according to plan", I expect it to happen all the time when I'm boxing (even if it doesn't happen all the time), so when it does, its all going the way I imagined it anyway. The belief part I believe is very important, if you get hit with a massive shot and in ur mind, u expect it to be a shot that would drop u, it probably will. If u think to urself its no big deal, I truly feel like it makes a difference in how much it phases u.
