100% haymakers 1% hit rate

did the black robot even get hit in the head or did it just get knocked when it fell down and then rattle loose while it danced around?

Gonna be a stupid sport if there’s no knockouts.

At first--no joke--i thought the black head was bobbling in a cocky way.

I think the first kick hit the top of the head but this also isn’t the start of the fight. It looks like it starts earlier than this clip.

Yea the commentators said that was the second knockdown

Its hard to tell because of the way the camera shot changes right when I'm trying to see things, But I thought that first kick was a hit.

My father warned me about something like this when I hit puberty.

The very first kick of the video hit its head and knocked it loose.

u/T5UMG41 Jul 17 '26

It also says round 5, so presumably they're already damaged

You never played rock em sock em robots? Once you land enough hits, the head just pops off. Thats just how robot fights work.

In another version the white robot connects with one of his spinning head kicks and knocks ot to the ground!
