Getting hit on the forearm hurts more because you dont have as much meat there. and if you're pounding away at almost a 90degree angle from your opponent he's either going to move his forearm and give you the openings you're looking for or break his forearm or he's going to expose himself trying to reach across trying to get some offense going
    You can surmise that one has to have power when facing the turtle defense

      not really. As long as you're not malignaggi weak, a constant beating over a small surface area will take a cumulative toll. The idea is not to get through the shell per se. But rather be in a position where it makes it real difficult for them to mount a counteroffensive.

        Incase some haven't told you yet, and this will be my first bandwagon, your avatar is quite gayish.

          I noticed Roy was using this defense in the Tito fight, Cal will have his hands full if Roy uses it against him.

              Hopefully, you'll notice the Queen in the OP's name. The person is most likely a girl.
