Ever been down in a fight?

[fraidycat]

ive gone down from a shot in the solarplex. dam it hurts.

For me, as a southpaw, it's been a left hook to the liver, in the sweet spot between my abs and obliques. Took me a few times of getting before I learned where to hold my right elbow. I was surprised at how quickly I was incapacitated. It felt like getting kicked in the nuts, only it took me out even faster.

I've said this before -- if I ever, God forbid, have to use boxing on the street, I'm going to the body.

i've been given 2 standing 8's in separate fights, never been dropped though.

The first was the only time i've ever fought another southpaw, it seemed to confuse him as much as it confused me but he tagged me with a decent right hook that i didnt see coming and my footwork was all over the place so it sent me skewing off into the ropes, was shaken a bit but i knew where i was and i had actually started to try to counter when the ref started counting. looking at the video of it it was a pretty deserved one, i ended up losing that fight my majority dec.

Second one was more laziness than anything, it was the end of the third, i pretty much had the fight sewn up, i just sort of layed on the ropes and let him throw like 6,7 shots unanswered, i didnt even get my bell rung by any of them, i was just tired and too lazy to throw anything, i still won the fight by UD though

Never been down in a fight...


went down from body shot from easely though during sparring.... pro in my gym. thats the one time.

Never been down or received a standing 8 count in a fight.
My last fight was against someone who got bronze medal in junior WC (69kg), and I was shocked how mother****ing strong that dude was.
After 8 seconds, the only thought in my mind was "4 rounds with this..?"

I gave it my all though, didn't move back an inch. I lost the fight 14-3 (his hometown), but the experience was totally worth every braincell I lost in that fight...


I've been down in sparring a couple of times, though, all from bodyshots.
Broke a rib in sparring once. Tried to get up 8 or 9 times, but just toppled over like a ****ing ******.
I'll tell you this, Castillo couldn't have beat the count even if he had tried.


As a matter of fact, I went down from a bodyshot last friday in sparring.
A brilliant left hook, directly on my lower back muscle, which have been killing me for 2 weeks.
My foot went numb for a second, but only for that one second.

I love slipping Southpaws jabs and throwing a left hood to the liver.Its too damn easy because you have to throw you jab and when you do it its like a gift.

I slipped and got an 8 count.But besides that Ive never been down in a fight or sparring. Been hurt 2 times though,it went away in half a second(literally)

Smaller they are, easier they sprout back up.
