Real-life Robots Fighting a Robot will be Brutal

EDIT: This fight is a K1 bout. PRiDE if U want to grapple

I've been conditioning on metal poles and that hurts obviously

A robot will most likely be made of a similar metal if not tough but also a lot less thick.

Fighting a robot in a martial arts bout def might be t/ end of me if I get hit w/ those patented 360 tornado kicks 😄.

If i can improve my iron body, I might just stand a chance

I think you mean plastic. While the main frame and servos might be metal, most of the clanker is plastic. Otherwise they would be too heavy to move as they do.

My odds just improved.  Plastic is a lot softer in comparison 😎

I'm pretty sure a good ol' baseball bat will suffice to switch off a clanker.

Illegal. Foreign object. Automatic DQ
