It happens when you get your liver hurt. The reaction always takes a second or so but you have very little chance to recover from that.

He does insane workouts in all areas... honestly the guy is an athletic beast.... it's just that, LITERALLY, no one in the world punches or kicks like Overeem. He has muscles and he knows how to use them. No one would have kicked brock or kneed him to the body like Alistair. Brock looked surprised if anything.
Ohhhh I'm so rubbing it into all of my co-workers' faces, they all rooted for Lesnar. Respectable run in the UFC though, but it seems once people figured him out he couldn't win anymore. Plus the illness really seems to have taken a toll, regardless of what the countdown hyped about him being in better shape than ever before.
A liver shot is a punch, kick, or knee strike to the right side of the ribcage that damages the liver. Blunt force to the liver can be excruciatingly painful, and an especially effective shot will incapacitate a person. Thus, in combat sport, liver shots have produced technical knockouts (TKOs). Bas Rutten popularized both the term "liver shot" and the use of this tactic in mixed martial arts.
Wiki quote.
It just takes a second or so for it to kick in as the live starts to bleed and your body starts shutting down.
I've had surgery on my abdomen as well. It takes A WHILE for your core muscles to come back to full strength. I was working out 4 times a week with a personal trainer for over 6 months before i even felt remotely close back to normal.
And the muscles have never felt right since that, and this was minor surgery compared to what brock had done.

I love it when athletes retire with the timing Brock just used. The guy is an ex champion and a monster beast and there is a realization that he can never beat any of the top three guys anymore. He'd have to stick around as a gatekeeper who little to no chance of ever being a champion again. It hurts to see champions go down that road and I really appreciate it when they retire the moment they can't be champions anymore.

Hey FA! Haven't seen you in these threads for a while. I know you're an avid MMA follower.
I've been meaning to ask you for a while... I think there was a Shootokan or Kyokushin (can't remember which) kumite video that you posted a while while back. Would you be able to link me to that again?
Havent really been following int he past year >.<
I think I know which one you are talking about... but I think it was maaaaaaybe this?
Those knees would probably kill a normal guy. If you checked the replay when he gets a knee on the body at his liver it sinks so deep, hurts just watching.

yea but he walked into the fight with that mindset, at least think it over after wards and decide how well you can do and whether or not you could improve. dont go into the fight thinking "well if i lose im too tired and ill just quit "
EPT
Congrats to Overeem, such a great performance.
