Yup, and we get the "Why doesn't Wlad fight like that?" bitching and complaining....well there's your answer right there. NEVER has a fighter been hurt by a punch that DIDN'T make contact with his head. Willie Pep fought over 240 fights and lived to the ripe old age of 84 specifically because he didn't get hit all that often.
I hope Magomed pulls through alright.
Yes it's possible to have entertaining fights where no irreparable damage is done, but there's a correlation between the amount of damage you take and how long your career will last. The more damage you take the shorter you'll be around.
