Frye vs ramirez from same site

http://www.mma-core.com/videos/VideoDetails.aspx?vid=10000486&tid=100

As for number 6, that was actually round 2, so it is actually 5 minutes 7 seconds... hardly a fast knockout, but still worthy of extra mention.

Good list..  The only thing, that Riddle KO from TUF 7 was in the second round..

[airgarcia]

good stuff. You could see Kid Yam. lift his shorts pants above his knee as to prepare for the skin on skin contact!

[zimanu]

does anyone knows if there's an average of knockouts a human being can take?

I know from exprience that in martial art, weak points in known adversary usually only gets weaker
but when it comes to the brain shutting off, it seems that once a guy's been knocked out, it's more or less of a free fall after that

does anyone have any scientific knoweldge, statistics, anything, on this?

[airgarcia]

there is a very sensitive group of nerve endings at the back of the jawbone and when you strike the jaw in the right way or hard enough,the nerve gets pinched which renders you unconcious.

yeah, I get tht, and there's many other weak spots in the body, but my question was more about the amount of times an average human can take this!

let's formulate it more radically, how many times can a guy get knockout before he gets into a coma: I guess I shold be asking this to the UFC's doctors...
