You keep hitting until the referee interferes. They are in super great shape and can recover quickly even if they look completely done. it's the refs job to protect the fighter. It's the fighters job to get the victory

[@KwisatzHaderach77]

Cody is right and not only that, MMA is a much healthier, less dangerous sport than boxing. When you knock someone down and out in boxing, they get to stand back up and keep fighting if they can get up in 10 seconds, which leads to severe head trauma when they start taking punches after already having a concussion. In addition, since the gloves are much bigger in BOXING than MMA, your face doesn't suffer as much skin/bone/tissue damage in boxing, but your BRAIN suffers the exact same amount of bouncing off the inside of your cranium aka concussive trauma as an MMA punch, yet there are far more punches per fight because of how long the rounds are, how many rounds their are, the fact that in MMA you take strikes to the legs or grapple on the ground and clinch for extended periods, but boxing is just left-right rinse-repeat, combine that with how fighters that have been concussed and essentially K.O.'d are allowed to get back up and "recover" to go on, and you've got a recipe for Long Term Brain Trauma. By contrast in MMA, once you knock someone out the fight is OVER as long as you finish it by making sure not to let up so that the ref steps in and calls the fight, this saves the losing fighter from more long term damage overall compared to boxing. Which is why retired boxing legends have parkinsons and other shakes/nerve damage/brain damage/dimensia, whereas in MMA they are significantly less so on average. You can go watch any amateur MMA event or prelims to a main event and inevitably some fighter has someone near beat, either knocked out or wobbling on their feet, but fails to finish strong and the fight continues and then the would be winner ends up losing, so it's one of the fundamentals they teach you in MMA - don't let up until the referee steps in and calls it. Of course there are always times when it's so definitive that you can get away with a walk off if you know what you're doing, but still risky.

[@1trumantucker1]

I've seen lots of fights where a guy looked completely out cold, and recovered. They need to make sure their opponent can't recover until the ref steps in and calls the fight over.

[@williamnichols539]

Yes, the rules were specifically clarified to fighters because people kept letting their opponent recover when it was thought to be over.

[@TheJokesterSCR]

This is MMA. You don't stop until the ref stops you. There have been instances where fighter A knocks out fighter B, but it was a flash KO and fighter B wakes up as soon as he hits the ground and they let the fight continue. This way there is no question who the winner is.

[@JakShadow]

They are not agressive all the time, and they don't have to be angry to fight, it's actually the complete opposite, they need to be calm, cold and strategic, if you are just moved by emotion and go trowing hands completely mad and not thinking you will get knocked out in a matter of seconds in mma, that's why you see a lot of fighters having absolutely no emotion or a concentration face all the time no matter what they have the same face

[@theonlyjonah79]

MMA scoring is a 10 point system where the round winner gets 10 points, the opponent 9 or less. It's not like you're getting points for each strike you land, just the accumulation. They are fighters so even if they drop someone they are trained to keep fighting until the referee stops them. Some fighters know when they land the knockout shot and stop. Others, they keep fighting. There have been some amazing comebacks after getting knocked down. Watch Frankie Edgar versus Gray Maynard and you'll see a perfect example of why you keep fighting until the ref stops it. Just cause you knock someone down doesn't mean you stop fighting.

[@Silver_Bullet1999]

There is an art in fighting. I’ll also add that no one has ever died during or immediately after a fight in the UFC. Boxers die a lot because they are given multiple chances to get knocked down, but in MMA, when the ref steps in that’s it. I’d love to see y’all react to some UFC submissions or more knockouts pls. Thanks for taking my request for this vid!

[@YBMJETT]

Thanks for the information! We'll look into those as well!

[@ragingwarrior8098]

@@YBMJETT In MMA there is no chance to comeback or recover. Just straight up finish the opponent. So you can keep beating the guy as you like until ref steps in.

[@spenserswain953]

I mean there have been deaths in MMA, you can't compare the whole of boxing against just the UFC, thats just wild. No deaths in the UFC is true though but you are comparing the best promotion that does look after their fights after the fights and makes them go to the hospital and has checks beforehand, most of the MMA and boxing deaths happen in lower tier promotions just pointing out the flaw in your argument.

[@sembo2666]

@@spenserswain953 Theres been a total of seven recorded deaths from sanctioned MMA fights. Not many more in unregulated ones (again, that we know of lol). There's about 11 deaths in boxing per year, as a rough average at least.

[@ClintBeastBud]

Fighters job is to keep attacking until the ref pulls them off,there have been fights where they haven't followed their opponents down and they ended up recovering and winning

[@wilsonsmanz]

Its not like boxing. In boxing when you punch a guy and he falls down the ref has to start counting and he has to make it back to his feet before the ref is done. MMA is not like that. The fight ends when the ref decides one fighter is totally out of it or all the rounds are done. So they guys continue to hit to make sure the guy is out.

[@justdave9610]

It looks more brutal but statistically compared to boxing it's relatively safer this way

[@SkindrixX]

in mma , you keep going till the ref stops the fight

[@drewcliff82]

The reason you keep hitting them is bc the ref isn't going to stop the fight bc they got knocked down. Many times people jump on a guy and the guy on the bottom wraps his legs around them (This is called full guard) and prevents them from doing more damage. Boxing is also more dangerous. In boxing you get knocked down, get a chance to recover then the fight continues and you take far more punishment. In MMA its more often you get knocked down and hit a few more times and the fight is over. In boxing you also have no other option but to stand and punch each other. In MMA you can clinch, take the fight to the ground etc. People die in boxing every year. Only a few have died in MMA but no one has died in any major organization such as UFC, Bellator or One Championship. You guys should watch a best submissions video and that will show you another side of the sport.

[@streetplaya23]

Asking mma fans why fighter keep hitting after a knockdown is like asking why ppl double check if they locked all their doors, theres always a chance, so u do something to make sure. Plenty of fighters have looked dead for 1 sec, only to get up like a zombie right after. U only see the ones who didnt get up n comeback becuz this is a ko highlight not a greatest comebacks highlight - yall should react to that to understand more and it wud be fun. MMA greatest comebacks.

[@phantomimages7673]

The single kick to the body that dropped that one guy, was a liver kick. Liver kicks and punches delivered at this high skill level, are insanefully painful. You see see pro boxers get knocked out from liver punches all the time as well.

[@seanwilson5516]

Boxing has 10 count, this doesn't. This is not boxing. The aim is to knock the person out cold, so he can't get up.

[@TheNeonParadox]

The reason to keep striking once they're down is to make sure it's a KO. Even if it seems obvious they're out, sometimes it's a temporary daze and people can recover. Referees often do a good job in breaking and calling the KO before they take too many excess strikes, but there have also been other cases where the aggressor literally had to stop himself because refs weren't calling the fight.

[@a.a.ron2187]

So the difference with CTE being more prevalent with boxers and not MMA fighters is that most of boxing is repeated trauma to the head. Even if you get knocked out in boxing, you can get up before the ref counts to 10 and get right back to taking punches to the head. MMA is more trauma to the whole body usually and the wrestling/jiu-jitsu takes away some head trauma at times.

[@KevinKillaKam]

There's a thing called a flash ko. Where you knock them down and they appear temporarily out but come to right away. In general you keep attacking until the ref stops the fight. However the best fighters know when a person is out and will stop before the ref stops it. It's not illegal to keep hitting if the ref hasn't stopped it.

[@drewcliff82]

Ahhhhh people who have never watched MMA. I've been into the sport for 26 years now. You keep going until the referee stops it as the fighting conti ues on the ground. You guys should watch videos about the best submissions of all time.

[@fointnikfraudulant]

Because it is NOT OVER until the ref says it over. If you stop to early, you might give your opponent to recover and come after you. So you have to keep your foot on the gas.

[@Eddy-we2nq]

The prodigious really shows

[@MarkS-gm3sf]

The one where he kicked him in the body was probably on, or near, the liver. That is probably why it hurt him so much.

[@jangchupyonten6854]

It's the referee's job to decide whether someone is completely unconscious or in other words can't protect himself. The only thing that stops the fight are knockouts, injury, referee stoppage, doctors stoppage or an illegal blow. But MMA is way safer than boxing because in MMA you kick, takedown and do a submission.

[@hmanvlogs2956]

The reason you keep hitting is because normally if you drop a rock someone they could easily get back up and hit you back or recover or take you down and recover, so when they’re in those high stress high Tensity situation they can’t really tell the difference so when they hurt someone they try to finish them off so that they can’t recover

[@verlinsequoyahjr4604]

It’s because you don’t stop until someone tells you too stop but you keep throwing your hands

[@PapaGG360]

Coach says play until you hear the whistle when you play ball… same concept. You fight until the ref determines the fight to be over. Edit: KEEP IN MIND: The goal is to render your opponent unconscious by legal means.

You guys should do a reaction on mma KO comebacks you would understand why fighters always try to hit them even when they down

[@streetplaya23]

A quick video answer for ur question of WHY THEY KEEP HITTING EM WHEN THE KNOCKED DOWN? KZbin search 'mma comebacks' or 'failed walkoffs'. There is a risk of enemy getting back up and in thd split sec moment it can be hard to tell if hes really out or about to get up in 1 sec so u just MAKE SURE until the ref sees enough. This aint boxing.

The ref in the ring it is his job to stop the fight.. A fighter isn't suppose to stop til ref steps in because fighters get extremely upset with early stoppages... Happens more often than you would think.. Where fighters gets back up and starts yelling at ref.. Happens in almost all combat sports

[@michaelhawk-fitz7563]

c'mon..both of y'all need to man up..being "down" doesn't mean anything..you're supposed to knock your opponent out or force them to tap out to a submission hold or choke them out..you need to watch some entire fights to know that these aren't some schoolgirls who have no clue how to defend themselves fighting bullies..

[@joeflynt1143]

The gloves protect the hands and let them hit harder but they do help stop some cuts to the face

[@johnmessina2927]

They score in a 10 point must system where the winner of a round gets 10 and the loser gets 9 or fewer.

[@thedeaddan6970]

Hi yall, Always enjoy your reactions. I know it seems brutal but MMA as far as brain damage goes is safer than boxing. I see yalls point about strikes after someone is knocked out as being "unnecessary". With that said the fighter stops when the ref says. So many more "unnecessary" punches get taken in boxing. You can hurt a guy in boxing, and basically a timeout is called. The fighter "gets his barrings back" but may be concussed but seems ok to the ref and then go on to take many more "unnecessary" where as in MMA there's no timeout. So someone gets hurt falls then may take 3-10 unnecessary punches vs potentially many more. A man died because of the standing eight count. He got knocked down multiple times in the boxing match, on the last knock down he went to sleep and never woke up. If it was an mma match he most likely would have been finished after the first knock down, rather than taking all the "unnecessary" shots that ultimately took his life.

[@oak7746]

Looks up crazy MMA comebacks and you'll see why.. some people are built different and can take those shots.. best example is ben askren vs robbie lawler

[@drewgamezzz8482]

Ok, so I lied, but @10:21, she isn’t thinking about the fact if he doesn’t hit him in the head then his opponent will be doing it to him. I think she needs to skip the next MMA video lol, she seems to not like it lol.

[@voodjin]

*What is the purpose of hitting him if he is allready done* It's actually in the rules of MMA. You (that means the fighter) don't stop the fight, the ref stops the fight. And as long the ref didn't stop it, you need to keep going, otherwise you also can be disqualified.

[@drewgamezzz8482]

@1:35 it’s not illegal and “super necessary” cause you always go until the ref stops the fight.

[@drewgamezzz8482]

@2:40 there have been plenty of times where a guy looked out, everyone said the fight should be stopped, and he got back up and won. If you wanna see the best representation of this, or in my opinion anyway, look up Pat Barry vs Check Kongo.

[@topherd1011]

Sometimes the ref takes way too long to call it but I can’t blame the fighter for that!

[@drewgamezzz8482]

Last comment, but I’ve never seen someone watch MMA knowing what it is and them complain so much about ppl getting beat up lol.

[@DelEast740]

Saw 5:28 last month at the Around Classic in C-bus Ohio. He was at a youth jiujitsu event where I was watching my kid.

[@TheJokesterSCR]

You gotta watch some full fights for it to make sense. So boxers end up WAY worse off later in life because they can technically get TKOd multiple times per fight so long as they can stand straight before the 10 count. In MMA, once the fighter gets KOd or TKOd, or taps out, that's it, the fight is over. So, in boxing a fighter usually gets on average way more concussions than MMA fighters.

[@rj6thstreet]

Fun fact: The gloves are mostly to protect the fighters knuckles

e fight until the ref stops us

[@joshc.6706]

Speaking from experience it’s ingrained in all people training in mma that if you were to ever be in a mma fight that you at all costs (within the rules of course) make the referee end the fight. So that’s why if they have someone hurt, unless it’s blatantly obvious the opponent is out cold, you apply more pressure and force the referee to step in to help save the other fighter, therefore ending the fight. Also very nice touch the video included a body shot. From experience the liver is one of the most short term painful experiences I’ve had while doing mma. Much rather get punched in the face. In the moment for me much easier to shrug off

[@Weatherby406]

The fights are ended when they aren’t defending themselves.. Iv seen guys get knocked out and come back to win. That’s why they keep hitting them.

[@discreteentropy]

There is no 10 count like boxing. You go until the referee stops it. Though it appears to be more brutal, it’s actually much safer than boxing because fighters can’t get up only to be beaten more if they beat a 10 count.

[@AboutMMA_]

Sometimes the person can get back uo or recover in a second, sometimes the fighter can't tell the guy is out, sometimes they don't like the person (rare but it happens), a lot of the time they won't throw extra strikes if they see the fighter is out cold. Great one to watch for sportsmanship is Machida vs Muñoz. They were friends, machida knocked him out and just raised his hand to prove to the ref that Mark wasn't gonna defend any more strikes

Not really points. Points are for ground control, effective strikes. But they are going for the KO. That wasn’t a kick in the balls, that was a liver kick. Shuts the body down. As people commented, they are supposed to keep fighting until the ref stops the fight. People have recovered and won the fight. On the other hand, there have been fights where the fighter doesn’t want to keep hitting the guy, and the referee doesn’t stop the fight, and the winning fighter gets super mad at the ref. It’s not as bad as it looks tho. It’s safer than boxing. The fighters have more ways to defend themselves and once they’re out, the fight is over. In boxing, after they get knocked down (and probably have a concussion), they get up and fight some more. That’s why there are more deaths in boxing.

[@NickPR87]

I think y'all confused with boxing 😂 Very seldom will a referee stop a fight on a knockdown, guys have to keep hitting the opponent in order to have the ref step in, unlike boxing where the guy would get a count on a knockdown.

[@drewgamezzz8482]

The fact they keep saying all this stuff about being illegal and shows they must not watch MMA like that lol.

[@cruisinsixothree3960]

Please learn the rules of MMA before reacting to MMA videos. A fighter can go down and as the other fighter come in could actually get caught in a submission. Just because they are down doesn't mean they are out of the fight. People get flash KO'd all the time, as soon as they hit the mat they wake up and can continue fighting, sometimes they get finished sometimes they snag a submission or get up an ko the other guy right away. You fight until the ref stops the fight. There are however plenty of example of a fighter getting knocked out and the opponent doesn't delivery extra strikes....known as walk off KO's. Mark Hunt and Roy Nelson are famous for these.

[@streetplaya23]

This shows us the worldviews of how other ppl define the word "fighting". A big portion of the un-initiated still view hitting someone on the ground as taboo when really it was the long popularity of boxing that probably just made it that way. The more mma gets more common place it will change. They hit on the ground simply because it is allowed. Just like how nfl players can hit but not kick or punch, but it still violent as hell with the brain damage. This is not boxing. Mma was made to settle the debate of the best fiighting techniques in a ruleset closest to an all out no rules free fight to the death that could be legalized. So the ref jumps in right before the loser would have died, got crippled, or show i quit body language. Some refs fail tho lol. But deaths in mma are rare especially in well regulated smart promotions. Simply put if u fought someone in a street fight no one around to stop u both, who's to physically stop the other from doing watever they wanted to u, no one. No ref to say stand em back up or break it up like in boxing if it hits the ground. Its more realistic. In mma ref only breaks it up if a foul is committed or lozing fighter is about to prove that they cant win anymore(see wat i said above). Its brutal but 1 mans brutal is another mans tame or mild. My mom get squeemish over fake zombies on fiction tv shows so even 1 drop of real blood she gone, while my friend can watch a leg snap in half and not flinch. Once u guys watched 100 mma fights u get desensitized and used to it really.
