For the fellas who box,

Anyone here ever been actually ko'd whilst competing in the ring? If so, how long did it take for you to recover, how long did it take for you to bounce back and get back into training?

Just interested to know.

Cheers

Not in competition, but i've been knocked down once whilst sparrin. It doesn't hurt, and you don't notice it. One moment your stood up, and the next your sitting on your arse. I got up straight away, and kept my chin covered more often.

Its in the back of my mind sometimes. But its good to have a ghost on your shoulder telling you to be careful and cover up. Better in sparring that in the Am's. I've been hit alot of harder than what i got got knocked down with. Its biology, only a few pounds of pressure on the correct part of your chin, and its lights out.

never been down or wobbled but I have taken some perfect power punches to the chin without seeing em coming and its just been a quick flash and my legs have always been sturdy

Damn everyones ****in superman...Half these guys have been knockout OUT... ANYWAY..I havent been Ko'd but I've been Hit so hard that my trainer had to stop the sparring match for a few seconds. I was sparring the same pro that messed up my ribs 2 months ago.

So I havent been but It could just as easily have happened if My trainer didnt realize I was Dazed. Plus it was Sparring.. so I dunno if you count that.

If you get k.O'd you can't fight for 60 days in AM's.

This pretty much sums me up.
