Evalyn has graciously agreed to help me out with a basic guide to where to hit people, and what hitting them in various spots does to a gal. Granted, she’s more often dishing it out than taking it. (And she said that she’d help out only if I could give her a good fight!)
I did indeed give her “a good fight,” if by that, she means that she demonstrated every technique here on me…OUCH! (She’s 5’9, and you can see how solid she is…she hits hard for her size, too…)
- The Eyes
The eyes themselves are very hard to punch solidly when boxing. They are a small target, and protected by the eye sockets. As a result, most of the blow will be absorbed by the surrounding flesh and bone. When a punch DOES land there (usually only happens wearing small gloves, MMA gloves, or bareknuckle) the effects can be devastating. One good hard punch can cause enough swelling to close the eye, and is intensely painful.
2. Eyes (2)
The usual “Black eye” is inflicted by punches landing here, bruising the flesh and making it swell; the swelling can spread enough to close an eye. These punches hurt, when they are sufficiently hard, and enough of them will produce an amazing assortment of colors. Of course, if you can get the eye partially closed, she can’t see as well from that side, allowing you to hit her more, perhaps closing it completely. A nice black eye is a traditional hallmark of a hard fight.
A cut in this area, above the eye, is both dramatically bloody, and drains into the eye, obscuring vision badly
3. The Nose
A traditional target in boxing, even a light punch there can sting, and a moderate punch, even with big gloves, hurts quite nicely. Landing a good shot there can make her blink, giving a split second to hit her again. Sometimes, one good hard punch straight on is enough to give her a bloody nose. Even a little bit of blood makes breathing harder, with obvious benefits, as well as the visual effect of blood—always a bonus. Continuing to work her nose, besides inflicting a lot of pain, adds to the blood. She may be so focused on preventing you from hitting her nose again, allowing other targets to be hit fairly easily.
A really hard shot may even break her nose. That is excruciatingly painful, and may break her will to fight right there, or get her to cover up. A tough fighter may try to ignore the pain, but she can’t ignore the swelling that will result; there is a good chance that the swelling will close both eyes, with obvious results—if the fight isn’t stopped, she is a punching bag. It will also bleed very freely.
If a fighter’s nose is broken, the referee should stop the fight.
4. The Mouth
A punch in the mouth can hurt, and a fat lip is a nice bit of harm to inflict, but it’s not going to win a fight. A split lip can bleed nicely, too. If the cuts are bad enough, swallowing blood is unpleasant. Hard blows can occasionally inflict cuts inside the mouth, but this is rare, unless the mouthpiece is of inferior quality or absent.
5. The Jaw
The jaw is THE classic target in boxing, with good reason. A hard punch, clean on the jaw, can stun, daze, and even knock a fighter out with one punch. When a fighter takes a clean, hard hit there, she may well be momentarily less aware of what her opponent is doing, or too slow to react, and is open to being hit again. Punches to the jaw can be impressive visually for an instant as the blow slams it sideways—this same distortion also slams the head around. Punches there are so effective because they rattle the brain around more effectively than any other head punches. (Any head punch can knock someone out, if it’s very hard.)
6. The Cheeks
Punches to the cheeks are less harmful than punches elsewhere on the head, and are often the result of a poorly aimed blow, or one that was partially dodged or blocked. Often, the jaw is nicely tucked in behind the shoulder and unavailable; any hard punch in the head is well worth landing. They can produce a very impressive distortion of the head when they land, and fair skin starts to turn pink very rapidly. Further attention can lead to appealing shades of black and blue. The blows definitely sting, but not with the intensity of a punch in the nose or eyes.
7. The Nipples
The chest is not an easy area to target, as the fighter’s arms usually block the way, and the punches are fairly easy to block in many cases. Nevertheless, it is a popular target for several reasons. It is quite sensitive, especially the nipple area. Usually, it’s hit straight on, with a jab, or, preferably, a hard right. A crisp blow there causes a sharp pain, and, since the breast is soft, it can sink quite deep. A fair number of fighters will instinctively try to cover it right after it has been hit, leaving an opening for a good punch in the face.
Although the bruises that accumulate from punches in the nipples can be quite painful, they do little to inhibit her ability to fight, so long as she can endure the pain. The discoloration can be quite spectacular. Nipple punches are a major a fetish favorite; punching the breast is a major turn on for some fighters. A much smaller number are turned on by being hit there. Punches in the breasts are also a major fan favorite.
8. The Breasts
Punches here cause a more burning pain than the stabbing pain of a direct hit on the nipples. If the punch is hard enough, it can feel like someone is trying to rip the breasts off; a very intense pain. The blows can quickly bruise the sensitive flesh, producing spectacular coloration in a hurry, and leave a lingering, throbbing pain. Larger breasts can fly around spectacularly from hard hooks and uppercuts...many fighters are very turned on by landing punches to the chest, due to the feel of the blows landing, the way the targets (especially if large) bounce around, and the look of raw agony on the face of the recipient. Many spectators are just as turned on.
The danger of throwing punches there is that you may open up your face to damaging blows—and if your opponent can take a lot of pain without flinching, her head punches will do more damage.
9. The Solar Plexus
This is a potential fight ending punch. If you hit someone here just right, she feels like she can’t breathe, and she’ll go down, and stay there, usually for a lot longer than 10 seconds. The diaphram spasming is extremely painful, and she’s physically incapable of getting up. Even a less than perfect punch here can be very painful, making breathing difficult.
10. The middle stomach
Just below the solar plexus, this area is protected by her stomach muscles—if she works out a lot, and has a strong core. A sustained pounding here can sap her wind, as well as making it tough to keep her hands up—even if she’s able to keep her focus on doing so. The pain is a dull, lingering pain as you break her belly down—and much sharper if your punch is actually sinking into thoroughly tenderized flash.
Of course, if she’s NOT used to being hit in the belly, or you hit her much harder than she’s used to, she may well double over, or her hands may drop to cover the pain—and then her face is yours for the punching. (Or you can hit her elsewhere—but whatever happens, if her stomach gives way, she’s at your mercy…)
11. Belly button
The belly button is a fetish favorite. Less protected by stomach muscles, it’s a worthwhile target, with the effects of punches there rapidly accumulating, leaving a dull pain at forst, gaining in intensity as the blows also sap her endurance. Do enough damage to any part of the belly, and she’ll be moving slowly, ripe for you to knock her out—or work her over on the ropes.
12. The Lower Belly
The lower belly is a marginal target in boxing. Some or all of it is usually below the belt, and thus off limits. (The beltline itself is a legitimate target, and the upper part is behind the brighty colored beltline. However, the protective geatr is also behind that beltline, so in a normal boxing match, the lower belly is not a practical target.
In other fights, it most definitely IS well worth punching. There’s little muscle to protect the innards from the power of a good hard punch, and the agony of a fist sinking deep into her can blast the wind fro her lungs and double her over in pain—the same effects of a punch in the naval or middle belly, but without the need of smashing hard muscles into jelly first. A powerful enough straight into the lower belly can end a fight, either depositing her on the ground, or leaving her stunned, wide open for you to knock her out—or punish her until the ref stops the fight.
13. The Obliques
The side is a very good place to punch your opponent. If she’s in good shape, the obliques can take a lot of pounding to break down, but many fighters neglect their side sit-ups, leaving them quite vulnerable there. Sink a good punch deep into her agter theyn are broken down, and she’ll be standing in front of you, hands down, face contorted with pain…a good chance to drive your gloves into her almost anywhere.
Punches there can also influence her movement, getting her to move away from that side. Of course, the best time to punch her in the obliques is when she’s moving INTO the punch
14. Ribs
If you’re going to target her ribs, make sure your punches are HARD. The best damage comes from the sudden shock of a lot of force, so that it almost feels like her ribs are bending. Ribs evolved as armor for the body, and do an axcellent job there, so you need a lot of force. But, if you connect with that force, it hurts, and there is no give. Connecting with the lower (floating) ribs definitely hurts a lot more than a similar blow to the upper ribs, which are nicely anchored, thus stronger. It does take a lot of pounding; if you don’t pack a hard punch, hit her somewhere else. If you do pack a brutally powerful punch, hit her there! You will weaken her, hurt her. This is another target where it’s much more effective if you’re wearing small gloves.
15. Armpit
This is not an easy spot to hit, but the rewards can be quite impressive, if the punch lands just right. Most punches aimed there, however, won’t make it to the sweet spot, but be absorbed by the abundance of muscles in the area. You need a GOOD opening to slip the blow in. That said, a solid uppercut right into the armpit that lands just right produces a surprisingly sharp, stabbing pain, and cam momentarily shock the arm enough that she can’t do much with it for an instant—a good opportunity to punch her again. It also can significantly weaken the arm, a condition that takes anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours to recover from. The benefits of that need not be emphasized…
The target is very small, and only even able to be hit if her guard is sloppy, or you catch her with her arm extended as she throws a punch. It’s a much more viable target with small gloves or bare knuckle. If you hit her there several times, her punches from that side will be almost entirely ineffective, allowing you to thoroughly work her over.
I know well what all of these blows are like, both to take and to dish out…preferably not all in one fight!
For those who think Evalyn is over the top, I will say that I knew someone that is built almost exactly like her...and her punches HURT!
Seems this is my 500th piece of 3D art in the category...didn't realize that.
