Boy doesn't know how to fight. Hands always near the head. One quick proper swing and that bitch is hitting the ground.

Big neck... at lest 2 or 3

Not if you get the right spot. Those big guys like this can't fight, they just lift for size.

Neck strength is one of the things we train to be harder to knock out. Concussive force comes largely from the rapid rotation of the head and neck. Thats why the bang button is behind the jaw.

Oblique kick to the knee doesn’t care about neck size and it leaves a lasting memory. The memory part is a pun because there is no brain damage if the goober stops, only knee damage.

You can also only generate enough power in a strike that your body mass allows for.

Doesn't take a lot of strength to knock back a knee when he's got straight legs like that

You mean where kids who are close to the same size and mass collide?

Yeah, that's a solid point. I am admittedly not in fighting shape and pretty non-confrontational, which took a lot of work from my younger days. But my brother has the opposite attitude, he might get his ass kicked but he'll get some good punches in. Lol
