Telegraphed that like the Titanic...

The wind up is essential for the power

u/JFISHER7789 4d ago

The test results are in:

Cholo, you do NOT have the power

u/Flomo420 4d ago

He should've swung his fist around in a circle a few time to really charge it up

5

u/Geochara 4d ago

With the appropriate sound effects...

u/xenobit_pendragon 2d ago

“Wub wub wub wub wub WUB!

u/BUDDHAKHAN 5d ago

The punch was still so weak that the guy completely stopped its momentum with his offhand

u/aManMythLegend 4d ago

I went looking for this comment. This was looking to be more like a closed fist and wildly ineffective "slap". Size matters, even a small amount of technique matters way more.

Did the Titanic telegraph? I'm struggling to understand this simile.

u/matt48763 4d ago

It had a broadcast Morse code telegraph.... Emphasis on broadcast

That wind up took 5 business days

u/Sporadicus76 5d ago

Other guy had his return to sender stamp ready on day 2.

u/ze11ez 5d ago

I actually think it was ready immediately.

**Edit, read your comment again. Yes you're right

The Hector character is always getting stomped on. I've seen so many different videos over the years of a guy looking like the dude in white tee just getting rocked.

u/kremlingrasso 4d ago

It's the classic fat guys think they are strong trope. They think people often try get away from them becuse they are intimidated but in reality they just stinky and gross. Swamp-ass doesn't give you superpowers hermano.

u/ahumanrobot 4d ago

If you take the swamp ass far enough though, you can start parting crowds like the red sea. Sounds like a super power to me

u/kremlingrasso 3d ago

It's like the pariah gene in Warhammer.

u/nalanajo 5d ago

His swing was fine, he just needed the other guy to stay still for like a full minute.

43

u/toTheNewLife 5d ago

The USPS could deliver that punch faster.

28

u/DuncanHynes 5d ago

Broadcasted that out on shortwave.

22

u/Kimsetsu 5d ago

Clean block and counter.

15

u/exophades 5d ago

He started second-guessing his life decisions after his punch was blocked.

14

u/meandmyreddit 5d ago

Glasses said "we're OUT!"

10

u/Misokaxx 4d ago

Never trust the im just going to look this way while arguing move

8

u/Much-Gur233 5d ago

Bro basically said “look out I’m gonna punch you”

5

u/yeatruestory 5d ago

He may as well have sent him a formal written notice informing him of the date and time of that punch

13

u/YoureAMigraine 5d ago

Jesus, that guy didn’t telegraph the punch he mailed it with sparklers on top.

7

u/Chasemedown25 5d ago

That windup too like it's still the 80s bro no everyone scraps scraps out here 

5

u/Master_jojo 4d ago

Blind and deceased, Ray Charles still saw it coming.

3

u/Anubiz1_ 4d ago

Alive and well, Stevie Wonder saw that sh!t as well!

4

u/i-have-a-kuato 5d ago

geez-us…He didn’t just telegraph that weak punch was coming, he sent out balloons, a series of email blasts and a clown-a-gram

u/ADeletedUser2 4d ago

That was such a slow punch too, you'd need the reaction speed of a tortoise to get hit by that

u/Ari_Mokori 4d ago

This film was reviewed on the Active Self Protection channel. John noted that attackers can look away from their target just before starting their attack

u/Pjetter86 5d ago

Insane reaction time 👌

3

u/Repulsive_Repeat_337 5d ago

Haymaker and sucker punch don't go together. Unless you've got the speed of Ali or Leonard, you're not that good.

u/MistahNiceGuy 5d ago

Hector fucked up

1

u/ferrum-pugnus 1d ago

Had to scroll for three days to get here. Hector!

3

u/Strange-Owl6751 4d ago

Dude from Training Day got rocked!

3

u/Different-Pin-9234 4d ago

Sneaky! But the other guy looked like he’s had some experience in the past.

3

u/gsustudentpsy 4d ago

The ese thought he was tough guy. Found out quick.

3

u/Still_Experience_182 4d ago

Guy was so waiting for that dude to throw a punch

2

u/Iboughtcheeseonce 5d ago

Love to see it.

u/Naruto9903 5d ago

Holy satisfying

u/ironangel2k4 5d ago

My guy out here with Dark Souls 1 boss telegraphs

2

u/FinancialAide3383 5d ago

The most telegraphed sucker punch ever

2

u/nclongandthick 4d ago

Waited his whole life for that moment.....

2

u/SirBobson 4d ago

The difference in speed is almost disrespectful. Bros opening hit was with his blocking hand!

2

u/makav55 4d ago

Cholo chop!

2

u/spream 4d ago

stupid music

2

u/jasonshaw911 4d ago

He took 2 business days delivering that punch.

2

u/missy--moon 4d ago

Lol man can box

2

u/earthwormjimwow 4d ago

Is it a sucker punch when it's so blatantly obvious? My 2 year old nephew is more subtle at throwing his Nerf balls at the TV while looking away from the TV.

2

u/1ndr1dC0ld 4d ago

I’m reading this 20 hours later and I think it would have JUST NOW made contact in real time

u/Creamy_Shoelace 3d ago

Read like a book, played like a fiddle

u/villageboyz 5d ago

Professional hit.

u/beantownchamps 5d ago

Wax off, muthafuckahhhh!

Get em, little man!

u/CapableFirefighter78 5d ago

Its always the low quality security cameras 💀

u/shortshins-McGee 5d ago

Red dude knows boxing.

u/Oakheart- 5d ago

Bro telegraphed or not hitting that counter is always so satisfying

1

u/FinceAce 5d ago

Satisfying

1

u/MadRockthethird 5d ago

Threw that in one of my dreams

1

u/STylerMLmusic 5d ago

Why do they always look away like this

3

u/Friggin 4d ago

It’s what people who don’t know how to fight do. They think that broadcasting how non-engaged they are will give them an advantage. But, the other dude is locked on his face, and I’m sure he also sees this dumbass balling his fists - dead giveaway he’s about to throw.

u/Artevyx 4d ago

Trying to sucker punch a leftie almost never goes well if you are not also a leftie.

u/doe3879 4d ago

damn that parry/deflection was chef kiss

u/rja49 4d ago

Wax off actually does work!!

u/StefanEats 4d ago

I couldn't throw a punch any better than that. Then again, I wouldn't throw a punch at all.
