Great picture! It displays just how large the liver is, and also illustrates how transmitted force would transfer to the Vagus nerve, running roughly close to where the inferior vena cava is (the blue pipe in the upper midline area)
QUESTION:
What exactly happens when a person gets KO-ed by way of liver shot? What physiological things occur? And when Bas Rutten said he "broke" Jason DeLucia's liver, what happened there?
Help much appreciated.
ANSWER:
"I tried to go for the liver, because that is the most painful knockout there is" Bas Rutten

I think it was a guy on sherdog actually who described being hit in the liver as "being kicked full-force in the balls, only your balls are below your right pec instead of between your legs". I thought it was a pretty good description. You get instantly winded, your legs get stiff if they don't outright buckle, your chest/abs just lock up and I get this... I dunno, I don't want to say burning sensation, I can't describe it, I'd think taking one in the groin is the closest pain I can describe to it, except it lingers for the better part of a round.
physiologically? It just fucking hurts like hell. I think as soon as someone is hit solidly in the body, they're SOLD on bodypunching. It took me about 2 rounds with my coach of him feeding me body shots to appreciate the effect they have in all fightsports, and I've been working my body punching ever since

They show it in slow-mo from a few angles. When they film the guy taking the shot, you can see his ribcage press against his back as he takes the shot from the front. ow

Being KO'd via liver shot is the worst feeling in the world. You don't lose consciousness, you just lie there crumpled like a little bitch writhing in pain.

" Things you feel like doing when hit in the liver :
-Vomitting
-Suffocating
-Shitting in your shorts
-Passing out
-Crying for your mama
-Stop taking part in any kind of violent sport....... "
...How much does body-type in the torso affect the viability of the Liver Shot? Will someone skinny and Schilt-like be easier to apply it to? Is someone like Emmanuel Yarborough 'Immune' to the Liver Shot?Great question, but really hard to answer. I suppose musculature and abdominal conditioning may come into play a bit, but the actual anatomical area that's being struck isn't densely covered with a lot of muscle.
IMO, it's a vulnerable area, regardless of bodytype.

I had literally just got there when i got my stuff on and jumped in. First round, I thought, hey, I'll warm up a bit and ease into it.
Last 30s I throw a right straight a bit lazily just as he's throwing a left mid. Hit me right on the liver the fucker.
I have never EVER had to take a break, but the burning sensation was so bad and my legs just buckled. I couldn't breath for maybe 5 seconds because my lungs wouldn't work. It took me what was left of the round and the minute rest to get back to a normal sparring ability
Tap yourself with your knuckle by your right pec and keep doing it around the area until you feel your body slightly spasm. Thats your liver.
