They look stupid being knocked out so damn fast! I've fought against some TKD guys that were really good with there "pretty kicks" but they couldn't take a hit for shit! so it was a easy match once you get inside of them!
This is what i always did to get used to blocking and taking hits, spar with someone and let them beat the shit out of you! don't hit them back, just block! You wont be able to stop all of them! Thats how you learn to take a hit, and as far as body shots go, thats just training! Lots of training! Give it a shot! trust me on this, it works! If you don't trust me on anything else, please trust me when it comes to fighting!
tkd was my least favorite because of their "point sparring" system. it was retarded cause you never had a chance to counter anything. maybe im just saying i can't take a hit cause i usually spar with my older bigger bro's and they hit hard. body shots im fine, but like i said. you have more experience. in the ring then i do.
