Ever been dropped by a body shot?

strongest hit i ever took was roundhouse kick to the right side of my ribs through sparring gear. i remember i started to throw a kick right after and then just collapsed face first onto the floor and could hardly breathe for a minute or two. took me a while to even roll over onto my back.
 
Yoikes, but Africa sounds fantastic. At least you're seeing the World.

Check out that log, it's somewhere in the training logs section. You'll like it methinks. Lots of stories of me getting beaten up.
 
Never been dropped by a body punch but have by body kicks several times, mostly front ball thrust kicks or sole to body sidekicks. Both hitting the solar plexus cleanly drops almost anyone..
 
yes, I had this dreadful sparring session almost 2 years ago now. i was actually sick and shouldnt even have been training but went anyway.

took a kick to the liver ive never taken anything like it before or since. as i took the kick my body paralysed and i took 2 steps back then just dropped to the canvas. couldnt move for about 10 seconds. eventually got up, kept sparring. then the next round I was still fucked but continued, got backed into the corner and I tried to circle away. took a solid left hook to liver which made me drop my hands and then I got KOd with a headkick.

so yeh the liver shots lead to my demise in that sparrings.

the only time ive dropped someone in sparring is with a knee to the liver.

last week i threw a left hook to the body which as i landed it i was sure the guy was going down but he endured it. he went abit pale and his mouth guard almost fell out but he stayed on his feet. fuck 16s.
 
Yup, got hit 3 times in the liver in one sparring session. First one I was able to not blink at, but it hurt, second one I winced and by the time my wince was complete my man was coming at me like Wolverine on the covers of old X-Men issues. This is the kid that did it:



I'm pretty proud of the fact that that's the only legit time I've ever been down in sparring (lots of slips and rasslin' matches that ended in throws), and that it wasn't a head-shot.


Did he make you dance like that?
