I am voting for Bruising. Instinct tells me that I should go with Crushing because it is obviously the most devastating, right? Wrong. You think, "Oh, it's just a bruise, well it's not that bad." But keep in mind, this guy is a very competent Bruiser. Imagine the last time you stubbed your pinkie toe in the doorway. It hurt and probably throbbed for days. Now imagine that feeling, honed like a guided missile on all of your joints, your legs, your spine, your face, your skull, your organs, and probably multiply it by 1000. It's unrelenting pain. By the time the Bruiser gets done with you, you'll look like Violet from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

And let's not discount the hidden dangers of Bruising. Let's say, for the sake of argument, that you are Floyd Mayweather, and you escape with only minimal Bruising. Have you ever picked up a piece of Bruised fruit. It looks fine on the outside, but on the inside, its guts are all smashed into a pulp. Yeah, that's you. That's your guts.

Finally, we come to why, in general, Crushing is not as good as Bruising. With Crushing it takes a big maneuver to completely Crush an entire man. You may be able to crush a hand or a toe with a small move and slow him down a bit, but to completely Crush a man, you need something high risk. Yes, with Bruising you are going to be pretty gassed by the end of the hour, but that is why you got into the business of Bruising in the first place.
