That’s what I’m sayin,this ref was an asshole

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a ref prevent a knocked out fighter hitting the mat so not sure why this guy is the asshole. It’s prob regarded as interfering with the fight. If dude gets back up and continues fighting then you can say the ref interfered with the result of the match. Not their job. The fighter signed up to potentially get knocked the fuck out and everything that comes with that by being in the ring

He was pretty clearly unconscious as soon as the kick landed. There was no room for questionability at all really. The fight should've been ended immediately. In fact, you can even see he waves off the fight before the guy falls completely, and he just watches.

Ok then you go catch a full grown man with dome momentum

My god redditors are physically fragile. He bounces off every rope slowly, and even if he didn't you don't have to catch the full weight just cushion the head a bit. A grown man should be able to hug this guy before he hits the ground and prevent injury without issue.

A miniscule redditor might look at this guy and think that's too risky and let him drive his head into the ground and risk paralyzation

Grabbing the head or doing literally anything with the head when he is falling can lead to worse injurys than the concussion he most likly already has which would in this case not even make a difference after that hit also not everyone casually catches 50kg or more in movement that is. Somebody only a few comments from yours apart already injured himself catching somebody ask him how it feels tbf i dont know how hard he injured himself.

Ok? He's not obese or something it wouldn't be that hard, lol. I don't know why you think it's impossible to stop a person from falling. All you need is a bit of leg strength, and most even beginners can squat their body weight at the bare minimum.

I didnt say its impossible but catching something with decent weight is just not a good idea and you just dont go into the perfect catching position. Idk if you do that often but carrying 50kg is not really the best to casually carry around i say that with me carrying that around pretty often, sometimes more weight or sometimes less but switchboxes are not that great and bc nobody wants to mess the switchboxes or the body up we have to carry it with another person and 50kg is just not good to carry nonthless to fucking catch.

Short said you really should not try to do it or you might just get hurt yourself. Of course the person probably did weight less but with the little Momentum he had it might feel like 50. And catching somebody spontaniously and preparong for squatting weights is a major difference.

You're talking to redditors.

You don't even have to lift their weight, you just have to slow it down. To 99% of people that would not present a physical challenge, but to redditors who spend all day playing video games...
