The author might be trying to work that angle.Nueji should really be defending his head better; getting hit repeatedly in the head in his matches is going to shorten his career.
Yeah, that is sadly a weakness these street tuff types often have. A willingness to take damage is necessary for combat sports, but taking too much pride in it will always catch up to you eventually. No matter how good your chin is at firstNueji should really be defending his head better; getting hit repeatedly in the head in his matches is going to shorten his career.

I think Hachiya has the upperhand, he's got both great stricking and wrestling. While Nueji seems to rely too much on his strong chin, which is bound to break eventually if he doesn't defend properly, especially against someone like Hachiya who is known for his scary punching power. I'm still rooting for Nueji though.....Who do you guys think is winning between Hachiya or Nueji?
