If you try to back-step, it takes more energy and you still might get hit if you don’t do it fast enough.

Pivoting turns your whole body and puts you at a different angle and takes you out of the path of the punch.
In addition, the corner is responsible for stopping the fight if they feel their fighter is in grave danger of permanent injury.

I knew he was hurt though.
