      Movies have lied to us. Outside of trained boxers/fighters, it doesn’t take much to knock someone normal out IRL, a decent tag in the right spot and almost anyone will go out like that.

        I’m not a trained fighter. But I have knocked a few people out before. I had to hit them pretty hard and not just anywhere. Usually the jaw around the chin.

        Of course this was all in self defense. I had long dreadlocks and I live in a state with a bunch of cowboys… why do drunk cowboys always want to try to kick a hippies ass?
