I was about 6 and was trying to defend my brother.. I got K.O and bloody nose!

I Never get into to much fights so ive never been rocked but me and my brother did get into a fist fight last summer and he punched me in the face pretty good but it didnt hurt until after the fight and even then it wasnt to painful..but of course this was all before i got into MMA so he doesnt fuck with me now

Was absolutely wankered before an exam when I was about 14, problems with this one lad came to a head, due largely to me being pissed and cocky/vulnerable. He had a two step run up and haymakered me, leaving my with a tasty shiner and bloodshot eye. The punch didn't actually hurt due to how pissed I was, didn't rock either though.

I showed him whagwarn after the exam.

First time rocked was 10 yrs old, and not a head shot. An older, taller kid, hooked me hard in the kidney/liver when I was play fighting. Down, and out of breath.
I've been hit hard, couple times in street fights: small black eye, little knot on top of head. I've been kicked in the jaw in Olympic Rules TKD tourney.
I've never been knocked out, but the worst was in 5th grade, playing soccer, I ran flush into a girls(i'm male) head! My feet kept going and my torso/head slammed to the grass. That was the worst ever, the one comman factor: always more of a shock/stun than direct pain. The pain comes later...

first time i got punched in the face was when me n one of my boys got into a arguement when we were playin som baseball

first time i got rocked was during wrestling. had to wrestle this dude tht had atleast 15 lbs over me in class and we went for a tie up and he SLAMMED his forearm like right under my ear. i was rocked for a second bt i still got a double leg on him lol

Well, the first real punch i probably ever got was from my dad, he bounced at a nightclub for most of his twenties and even now i wouldnt try to stand with him, i know i can take him down an GnP him, but the guy fights literally like a PRIDE wanderlei just no thai clinch, he never rocked me cause he would always crack me in my forehead, and just leave on hell of a welt. I was once rocked, this was by my friend, he was an MMA fan before any of the rest of us were and now isnt as much of a fan, altho hes the only one of us that trains. The previous night me and him were grappling (i got a 6 inch 100 lb advantage on him btw) and i slammed him hard, he started moaning, claiming i cracked his rib. The next day we were chilling and i was just sitting on the couch while he was in his room, only at the last second did i turn my head and see his knee coming right at my face, i had no time to defend, knee hit me square on the nose, i dont remember anything until i was being pulled off him, this is what all my friends told me, he hit me with the knee, i recoiled tried to stand but my legs were shot, and they could see my eyes rolling, blood was pouring out my nose, i collapsed for a split second, instantly got up threw him over, mounted, began wailing on his face and spitting blood all over him, then they broke it up. We are still friends to this day however and chill often

Oddly enoguh I've never been especially stunned by a punch. Hardest I ever got hit was through MMA gloves when I got lazy, didnt see it coming just remember it hurting and a little red mist making me make a serious commitment to body punching for the rest of that sparring session

Hardest I've ever been hit was weirdly enoguh while wrestling - Sprawled on a guy, gave him enoguh freedom to start standing up so i could shoot while he was straightening up but didnt give him enoguh room, his head came up right up under my jaw. Broke my tooth and everything smelt of smoke for about 30 seconds

Hardest hit I took was from Asphalt, my teeth are still not the same two are probably dieng and 3 have fake stuff and still have a brace because of it! The bastard!

First time i got punched was when I was 10. It was at school and it was after some WWF event (back when it was called WWF) and we were all play fighting and the person who punched me misjudged the distance and hit me right on the forehead. I thought it would hurt more, but looking back it was right on the forehead and those really don't ever hurt.

First time i got rocked was playing softball and someone hit the ball and I was running and I wasn't paying attention and had led off a little bit and wasn't wearing a helmet and got hit right above the ear and tried to keep running but it felt like the earth had turned sideways and i blacked out a little bit. I tried to get up, but my legs were non-existant and i had to be helped to the bench.

I also got rocked in a Tae Kwon Do competition where I got hit by a kick to the back of the head, but it was nowhere near as bad as the baseball and I gained my equilibrium back after a few minutes.

So the question is...

When was the first time you ever got punched? More or Less pain than imagined?

8th grade school bus some dude hit me thought I was someone else I guess haha.So stupid and didnt really hurt at all was kind of like wtf man are you thinking

How did it feel?

Not that much of a feeling at all just laughed about it he really felt stupid about the situation

When was the first time you got rocked?

I got rocked by my brother during sparring one day right before the time went off was first round and I thought ehh about 6 seconds before round was over didnt expect him to throw another punch he threw a right jab/Into a uppercut/Right into a over hand right and yea I went to a knee and held on haha.

How did that feel?
It felt not so great but glad the round was over it didnt stop me but i felt it for sure and he jumped all over me had then been a min or so left I think i would have been done for.

shens

On January 4th, i picked a fight with a group of 16/17 year olds(im 20) that threw a snowball in my face. There was 15 of them, and 3 of us. I gave about four of them a good battering before being overwhelmed by cheap shots, and was kicked and punched in the head whilst on the ground defenseless. FUNTIMES!!

Luckily I watch UFC and do 2 martial arts so I knew to cradle my head correctly and only got a blooded nose and fat lip from 15+ people kicking the shit out of me =)

haha the 1st time was when i was actually showin one of my friends how to fight and we sparred and he cracked me pretty good on the back of the ear never been rocked b4 and i gotta say it wasnt a very good feeling lol

First time I got hit in the face was in the mouth, and my lips felt like an inflatable dingy. I,too, have never been rocked as I have a chin of titanium... buncha bullshitters, ha! okay, I got hit in the temple once that got me dizzy, and I had a headache after that. The blow didn't hurt my skin much though. Also got hit square on the chin and that got me dizzy too, but didnt hurt much. Seems like if you get hit in the nose, mouth, cheek, or ear that hurts your skin. Usually dont feel the bruises til later. Oh yeah, the eye socket, that one hurts all the way into your frontal lobe!
