    The heart shot, is great 'n little used. It paralyzes you, x.

    I was ahead in a bout an got hit in heart near the end of the last round. I turned into a cigar store indian. Couldn't move a muscle. Couldn't breathe. Good thing my opponent didn't know how badly I was hurt.

    I gentle breeze woulda toppled me.

    Moving your head and body with a punch.

    Doesn't take the power off of it, really, but takes away the damage you sustain from the punch; Impact causes damage because the moving force impacts a stationary, or also in opposite motion, object. A shot hits you jaw flush and still, or moving INTO the punch, your jaw moves in an equal and opposite way. Basically? Ouch. If you are rolling with a shot, most of the sting it taken away(If it is done well and the timing is on), because you are accelerating in the same direction as his fist. No substantial, solid impact occurs. Nothing is badly jarred, or made to move in a way it really shouldn't.

    I like to roll with punches as a primary means of defense. Yeah, it looks like I get hit a bit too much, but it keeps me in better position to fire back, and I believe in my power. Rolling with shots is a bad defensive tactic to win close decisions with, but if you aren't suffering from the punches, you are well positioned to win a more intense sort of fight.

    Trauma to the diaphragm, mate.

    Stops your airways, sends panic to the thoracic cavity.

    Ugly, debilitating stuff. Has nothing to do with your heart stopping or skipping a beat, any more than CPR(Which, if done right, is simply exerting tremendous force and some impact to the heart) damages things beyond your sore ribs and sternum.

    Love me the straight right hand to the chest or mid-torso. It's a shot that most don't defend properly, and if it is fully leveraged and connects square, the internal damage, in a boxing context, is catastrophic.

    That would seem a very good analogy. Try catching a hard ball without pulling away from it a little bit as you do it. The impact of the ball can damage your hands, particularly if you don't have a glove on. Done the correct way there is far less impact.

    He also mastered the technique of coming in around 165 pounds and fighting puffed up welterweights

    A better analogy than catching a ball is when holding focus mitts. If you give a little as the punches land in the mitts there is far less noise and far less impact on your hands.

    Exactly, world champions like Floyd Mayweather,Pacquiao,Marquez,Mosley,Wright etc are like worlds apart in skill level from the regular boxer.The general public doesn't respect the skill level of such boxers but the boxer's themselves do.

    In the anime, Ricardo Martinez is extremely skilled p4p I think on the same level as Takamura.
