Two thoughts /No thought

Sounds like this is related to processing stressful events and/ or going with the flow - which is particularly hard if your being punched in the face; true courage under fire.
It's like a graphic I saw years and years ago, which illustrated the challenge verses reward (bit 'old hat' now) where the right balance finds you in a state of 'flow', so in a fight where oncoming events are random/ dynamic and almost entirely afflicting.
It must take an enormous amount of mind-power to stay in the right head-space without either suffering an anxiety attack or lulling yourself into a trance.

I had a mate who was used once for a sparring partner here locally with either Rose or Famacheon I cant remember off hand probably Rose thinking of his age he would be around 60 now, before going to Japan for a title fight and he was a tough prick a stand over lad collector and street fighter for money. He was wining in the sparring session and beating the shit out of him for round after round was starting to think maybe i should be going to meet this Harada and we leave this bloke at home. Then the trainer said ok finish up. Thats exactly when he realized what he'd been used for and as he looked up from on the floor.
At level theres training and theres training.
