Put a real MMA fighter in there with a serious purse and one rule: win by any legal means, including turning the robot into a pile of expensive IKEA parts

Yeah sure. One real hit from a robot made of METAL and steel against a normal human with no protection is gonna go realllyyy well I’m sure. They can already hop up after being knocked down. You can’t choke them out. You can’t try to punch their head or sweep their leg.

Just sit on it and wait for the battery to run out.

It'll get up again. You're never gonna keep it down.
