There are situations such as boxing, MMA (mixed martial arts), and self-defense with the aim of bringing down the opponent as quickly as possible. In a situation like this, knocking the opponent out might be the quickest way to finish the fight. Usually, a person is knocked unconscious because his head is jerked to the side causing the brain to hit the side of the skull, causing the person to lose consciousness. Whether you want to use it in self-defense or to win a fight, follow some of the tried-and-true methods below to take down your opponent with just one hit.
Step
Method 1 of 4: Hitting the Temple
Step 1. Get ready to take a position
If you want to hit with your right hand, place your left foot in front of your body and your right foot behind you. Bend your knees slightly.
Step 2. Keep your body relaxed
Keep your body relaxed as you gain momentum. This can increase the momentum and power of the blow.
Step 3. Aim at your opponent's temple
The temples are the area on the side of the face, between the hairline and the eyebrows, at eye level. If it lands on the temple accurately, your punches can send the brain swinging violently toward the cranium, knocking your opponent out.
Step 4. Make a fist and use it
Sometimes it's easier to use your palms to hit, but your fists are more accurate in this case. Aiming at the side of the face, and hitting someone from the side, is very difficult to do with full force if you only use your palms.
Step 5. Use your hips to add strength, not just your arms
You can exert more force when hitting by rotating your hips as you move toward the target. Use your hips and arms if you want to add strength to your swing.
Method 2 of 4: Jaw smacking
Step 1. Position your left foot in front
If you want to attack with your right hand, place your left foot in front of your right. Bend your knee slightly with your left calf slightly back. Be relaxed and don't be too tense when doing this position.
Step 2. Practice waist twisting
Pull your right elbow close to your body with a clenched fist as if you were going to hit. The body should face to the right. Practice turning your upper body to face your opponent. This makes your punches have more power.
Step 3. Tighten the body
Tighten up right before you hit the punch. Don't forget to breathe. This makes the body more focused and the muscles toned so you can bring out more power. In addition, you become calmer which will be useful if the fight continues.
Step 4. Aim for the jaw, or the center of the chin
You have a good chance of knocking out your opponent by hitting his jaw or chin. You can hit the jaw in two ways:
- Uppercut. This punch targets the jaw by directing the fist from the bottom up, minimizing movement from the side. Your goal is to hit the enemy's head straight up.
- Sideswipe. This punch targets the jaw by directing the fist from the side. Your goal is that the enemy's head can be jerked to the side, which knocks him out.
Step 5. Use your hips to add strength, not just your arms
Keep in mind that you can exert more power by hitting while rotating your hips as you move toward the target. This technique is also used by baseball players to produce more force when they swing the bat.
Step 6. Don't forget to follow up with the arms
Your goal is to punch your opponent in the jaw from the bottom or the side. When doing Sideswipe, make sure you use a slightly curved range of motion. Your strokes should be curved, not straight.
Method 3 of 4: Using Kicks
Step 1. Stand in a firm position
Place your feet about shoulder-width apart and stand firmly on the floor.
Step 2. Protect your face
Bend your elbows and keep them locked. Then raise your fists so that they cover your face.
Step 3. Lift your right leg
Swing your right leg up and aim at the area on your opponent's face just below the jaw.
Step 4. Watch as your opponent's head jerks back and his body loses balance
Be careful, this can make your opponent lose consciousness.
Method 4 of 4: Throat Piercing
Step 1. Understand that piercing the throat can result in serious injury
This technique can seriously damage a person's windpipe. Only use this method as a last resort, or when your life is in danger.
Step 2. Get ready to take a position
You can use your middle and index fingers to "pierce" your opponent's throat. To position your fingers, act as if you want to make a peace sign using both fingers. Then, bring the two fingers together until they stick together. Then tighten your two fingers and get ready to attack.
Step 3. Aim your finger at your opponent's throat
In particular, aim for the curve between the right and left cervical vertebrae at the base of the neck.
Step 4. Use your finger to stab your opponent's throat
Stick your finger into your opponent's throat. This causes the opponent's pharynx to bend inward so that he cannot breathe.
Tips
- Always be ready to retaliate and defend if the opponent tries to attack first.
- If you have to attack first, look your opponent in the eye and hit when his eye blinks. One blink of an eye is enough if you want to end the fight quickly.
- If your opponent goes away, just let it go and leave the location immediately.
- Always use a combination punch.
- If it's not possible for you to walk away from the fight, try landing a sudden punch in the middle of a conversation or when your opponent isn't ready.
- Stabbing the throat is very dangerous and painful. Only use it if your life is in danger. Be prepared to take responsibility for the actions you take.
- Continue practicing the methods described using the model. This can increase self-confidence.
- Don't place your fists too close to your face when you protect them. If you get too close, the fist can hit you in the face when your opponent hits your fist.
- Don't forget to always hit the temple correctly because your opponent can be killed if this hit is done wrong!
- Stay focused on your opponent. You will lose if you take your eyes off your opponent.
- Learn your body and swing mechanics. This can help you to bring out more power!
- Throat stabbing cannot be protected without the use of protective objects. You have to protect it yourself because of the area no protected from nothing but your chin.
Warning
- Momentum transmitted by a punch is a direct physics. It has to do with mass and velocity. If you don't have mass, count on speed. Of course it is best to combine the two aspects.
- Only use the methods in this article if you have no other choice.
- Only use method 3 if you are physically unable to do anything else. This method requires a bit of body strength.
- Only use this when there is no other way.
- Remember that you have to face the consequences for your actions, in whatever form.
