Even in ufc, the stand and trade isn’t so contrived. Yes there’s an agreement to wing punches, but—other than on maybe very rare occurrences—is one guy waiting for the other guy to punch him with his chin out. It’s just throwing caution to the wind where they are going back and forth. I can recall a brawl or two where there’s a “bring it” moment, but that ends after one punch lands because they don’t want to get smashed clean in the jaw anymore.
