  I can see how that would be slightly disadvantageous for the second fight, yes… 🤔

    Well she got 2 arms, doesn’t she? :>

      Sure looks like It. On the other hand (pun intended), as far as I’m informed, most boxers actually need to use BOTH arms in order to win…

        Not if you punch with the velocity if a mantis shrimp

    Gotta be a pretty crazy opponent to not just concede after seeing this fight.

    But then again, whoever comes up for the 3rd fight will have it easy

    The good thing is if she can land the punch, a second fight won’t be necessary :D

      Except a championship usually consists of more than one fight… Unless she’s already the defending champion or top challenger.

      In which case she probably could have won fairly 🤷

        I think if my opponent removed the head of their last challenger and still had an arm left, I’d back out of that fight. I imagine next in line would too

        Time to learn from the crustacean how to grow arms as well

  Aren’t the strong body parts what allows them to punch so fast? Therefore if she was able to punch so fast her body should be fine as well

    I would be inclined to agree with you, but shoulder dislocation during a punch is not uncommon in boxing. There was a viral video regarding this where the boxer dislocated his arm due to the sheer force of his punch (missed the opponent), the coach put it back in, and then went on fighting in the same round.

    Unless if she also have enamel laminated fist, then yeah she would be unharmed while whoever received those punch will be pulverised.

  But if she hit the target, which hopefully had enough resistance, all she would have is a comminuted fracture.

  Since she’s larger than a mantis shrimp, I’d be inclined to scale up the speed accordingly.

  Speeds scale up in their technology using advanced geometries we don’t fully understand today.
