Eventually you will get hit hard.
How do you take the sting off the punch when all other defenses have failed?
Am I right in thinking tensing up is important (the ones you don't see coming cause the most damage because you are relaxed and your head gets accelerated quick)
But while tensed up you dont want to be like a stiff tense pole because that too adds to the damage, you want to be stiff at the neck and shoulders but give way at the waist so you can move with the punch? (Like a crumple barrier)
Chin tucked so the neck chest and head become 1 solid piece. Hands on temples
Footwork maybe can reduce power if you are close already get even closer to crowd the punches and reduce their power, also use foot work to go with the flow of power but has to be done right you dont want to step back or to the side and allow their punch to build up to max speed lol before it strikes you, you want to go with the force if its already struck or about to strike to take a bit of the sting off slow it down gradually
Bit down hard on gum shield
Any other tips?
Please correct these if they are wrong
