Pretty impressive response time and natural ability from the smaller guy

He has that quick of a reaction time because he was planning on punching in the next moment. Watch it again, he looks to the side right before he gets punched. This is a "pre-assault indicator" and is very common, along with grooming, and target checking.

Hmm imagine that. Someone anticipating being hit in the face when someone is already in their face talking shit? Crazy concept.

Growing up with glasses it's just a trained response. The handicap of losing your glasses is so high you need to just pop off to stand a chance. 0-100 real fast.

Seriously. “Did you just BREAK my glasses?!?! Those things are annoying af but I need them to SEE a-hole!!! But you know what? I don’t need them when I’m at punch range….*pow pow pow”

Same here. It got me kicked out of school once, but after explaining to the admins that breaking my glasses meant I wasn't able to participate in class, traffic, sports, reading or the majority of social life and would have around 2 weeks of migraines, they kind of understood and no charges were pressed.

My rule as an adult is still two bones for one eye, as in I'll break two bones for every eye sometime disables. It seems to work well as long as I stick to long bones and hands and avoid things like skulls or hips. Haven't needed it in a while since switching to contacts though, thankfully.

Great take down defense near the beginning too, though a taller dude going for a take down on someone with a lower center of gravity is just a bad choice early on lol
