In a shocking incident, a 36-year-old man died after he was punched on the nose by his wife after he refused to take her to Dubai for her birthday celebration.
It happens quite often. I’m a paramedic and have responded to scenes numerous times where the patient was only hit in the face once and died. I actually remember, years ago, it happened two shifts in a row in the same parking lot. There was a bar there that commonly had fights outside after it closed. Both times, people told me the person was punched in the face only one time. One of the two he was laying in the grass, so it wasn’t even like he bashed his head on the pavement after.
How are combat sports a thing? I’ve seen so many MMA fights end with a dude getting knocked out then the winner wailing on his lifeless face a few extra times before the ref pulls him off.
Those are trained athletes. These are drunk red necks.
I tried a quick Google for some statistics and didn’t dig deep. One of the first results shows 90 deaths in Australia from a single punch in a 2 year span.

Yes, but how does training help a knocked out fighter when he receives 3-4 more uncontested blows to his face? Is it because their head is already flat on the mat, and is absorbing less impact from the punches or something?
