Yep it's a fair point. When you land a flush shot, whether your opponent is hurt or not, you feel the impact surge through your whole body.
The fight has just started AGAIN on Setanta... Joe was clearly stunned while he was on his hands and knees but the guy gets back on his feet and finishes the round swinging - that deserves respect.
Of course it deserves respect. Dude got hit with a damn forearm on the nose. I would have stayed down. C
