can a person have an opinion once in a while?:roll:

 

and you seem to be a caucasian male who has a fetish for black fighters:hey

 

Freakin' weird beyond everything else.

First everything is visually blurry and moving when you come to. And like the other posters above said you have no idea where you're at; it took me over a minute to realize what had happened and until the next day to replay the events in my head. And you can't really move for several moments because you are so mentally out of it. You literally can't string thoughts together. You can only make primal observations of what's happening around you.

For the first couple seconds it feels a bit like waking up from an alcohol-blackout-induced sleep while you're really dehydrated too. Plus everything moves slow and it sounds like you're Tom Hanks from Saving Private Ryan. As the Pink Floyd song goes, "Your lips move, but I cannot hear what you're saying..."

Then the pain sets in after about 5-10 minutes. And then you can think again. And then all you can think about is the pain as you are still hazy for hours and in my case, well into the next day.

Mine was bad though. We're talking jaw shattered, picking flesh off my neck, doctors pulling gravel out of the open hole in my throat, etc. Perhaps a KO in a boxing match where you are (hopefully) paying attention and defensively responsible might be different, I honestly wouldn't know. Just from getting buzzed while sparring and what that does to you momentarily though, it seems reasonable that it's the exact same.


For instance... Montiel standing up after the Donaire KO? I can't even imagine being him for those 15 seconds after and it is truly shocking, not just as a Donaire fanboy, it is truly shocking that Montiel got up at all.

 

:smooch

 

sounds a lot like when you are drunk

 

Nope

 

OK. Props for that one, ahaha!

 

It has no doubt happened to you many times just for being as you are

 

Cheers for the response, that sounds bad. I have been woozy from a head hit in football but nothing on that level.
